~Erkkila handed those present a preliminary outline on the park system analysis
and spoke at length regarding its contents. He asked the secretary to mail this
preliminary analysis to those not present asking that they study it thoroughly. A
special meeting was tentatively set for October 20, 1977, 6:30 p.m. He also brought
out new base maps for Green Acres, Lund's Round Lake Estates and Grow Oak View. If
any new park land is dedicated after this date, and the Park/Recreation Commission
wants these in the comprehensive plan, he asks that he be reimbursed in accordance
with the contract. He gave the members an up-date on the tennis court construction.
Since the electrical portion of the 1977 bid was rejected by the City Council, he
is contacting other electric installers for new bids. To get full lights for multiple
purpose use such as another set of tennis courts, the cost now would be an extra $700.00,
approximately. In 3-4 years, this cost could well be $2,000.00 It was the feeling
of the members that it was better to spend $700.00 now than $2,000.00 later. Due to
the lateness of the season, the completion date for the tennis courts has been extended
to May 15, 1978.

The members agreed and asked the secretary to send a memo to P & Z recommending
OAK HOLLOW PRE. PLAT
Mrs. Orttel explained additional park land was not shown on the revised plat as the
area to the west is low and wet, and wondered if the Commission would like money in
lieu of the land for this .62 acres. Wes Mand and Glen Rogers felt the Commission
would prefer the land as it is a small portion of the proposed park and could at a
later date be filled in if the need arises. The secretary was asked to send P & Z
a memo stating this.

MRPA Conference
Jim Thurston has referred this to the park board for their approval - registration
to come out of the park board budget.
I think he should go and that some money should be allocated for food since it's
three days long and his salary isn't all that great.
In the past month he has joined two park associations.

MRPA Conference
I would like to attend the 1977 MRPA conference being held on November 8, 9 and
10 at the St. Paul Radisson Hotel.
I want to attend this conference because I have heard that its sessions deal in
detail with all aspects of the park and recreational programs within our state,
county and city governments.
In attending this conference I feel that I can gain insight into the park and
recreational function thus benefitting and enriching both the City of Andover and
myself.

The cost for the conference is $39.00 including one p~rk tour and no dinners.

This conference should be considered a must to attend and should be of concern

Please forward this request to the Mayor and City Council for their approval.
