JANUARY 3, 1990 PARK BOARD MINUTES <br />2 <br />Johnson asked the Park Board to comment if there was anything <br />they would like to see included in the survey. <br />Anderson said the City will follow the outline of the previous <br />survey. <br />Johnson said the finance committee felt the bond issue should <br />include the whole ball of wax. Johnson said he prefers to see <br />more creative financing; donations, pull tab money, army <br />settlement funds. <br />Larson said the medical center has 10,000 square feet in the <br />basement alone. It could be used for banquets.. <br />There was discussion about sharing a community center with the <br />armory. Parking, banquet facilities and locker rooms are all <br />concerns about how much the city would be able to use these. <br />Van Hatten suggested asking in the survey where people would <br />like a community center. <br />Anderson said the survey will tell us what groups will support <br />the community center; age group, location, etc. That should <br />enable the. Task Force to come up with a picture of what is the <br />best location.. <br />The Park Board inquired about how the survey was taken and if <br />the results would be an accurate picture of what people want.. <br />Anderson said the survey is a sampling of neighborhoods, <br />apartments, etc. He also commented that Decision Resources <br />survey results have been very accurate. <br />Larson said their figures are within 2-30 of their predictions. <br />V.
