. . . ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - MARCH 29, 1999 5 Mayor Probst stated that he had attended other briefings and been involved with City Staff in reviewing the athletic facilities. He also has two children working their way through the School District system. Based upon his personal experience, he stated that there are clearly needs beyond those that will be fulfilled by the Bond Referendum. Although much of the School District is newly developed, the school buildings are quite old and many of the systems are problematic. One issue with the Bond Referendum is that a large portion ofthe money would be spent on things that are not seen. Mayor Probst offered his advise that it may be important to separate the Bond Referendum issues from the dollars being spent from operating funds as most citizens do not understand that these funds do not mix. Mayor Probst stated that he would lend his personal support to the Bond Referendum. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A. March 8,1999, Regular Council Meeting B.
