Park dedication funds were received from Roseville Bank; $900 credit <br /> had been given them when they originally constructed the Bank, for the <br /> holding pond; in the rebuilding of the Bank, the pond was filled, so $900 <br /> was paid at this time. <br /> - Agreement has been reached with Northpark Corporate Center for dedication <br /> of ponding area and fountain (3% credit) and $35,000 in cash, no interest, <br /> to be paid in ten equal installments within ten years. <br /> The Committee expressed strong objections to the amount of the Northpark <br /> Corporate Center park dedication. <br /> Motion was made by Mulcahy, seconded by Peterson, that the Committee reaffirm <br /> its support for the 10% Park Dedication Ordinance. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> 1986 BUDGET <br /> Park Maintenance <br /> Acct. 109, Park Salaries <br /> This account shows an increase from $50,375 to $53,801. Buckley proposes <br /> adding one part-time employee for the 1986 summer season. None of the <br /> three who have been employed for the past several summers (and were increas- <br /> ingly efficient) will be able to return in 1986, plus more park area to be <br /> maintained, are the reasons for this proposed addition (from 3 to 4 summer <br /> . employees). Salaries of the summer part-time employees are allocated ten <br /> weeks to park maintenance, and six weeks to Park Fund. <br />
