$1450.
Minutes were approved by Joe Braun and seconded by Fay Gretsch.
Liaison report:
Bob noted that the St. Joseph Recreation has $11,927 that would belong to
the parks. He had a letter that was written in 1980 stating that the
monies would be returned to the park development fund. He needs a
recommendation from the board regarding this amount of money.
Recommendation reads:
Recommendation strongly made that the City Council keep and accept the
$11,927 for Park Development Fund that was graciously paid by the St.
Joseph Recreation Association. Motion passed unanimously.
Morningside Park: Bob noted that the parking lot has been graded. Felix
is waiting for the ground to settle.
Re: Property in Northland Addition for park area: John will check with
the City Clerk, Rachel Stapleton as to what to do regarding the park area.
