He stated that Ms. Olson came up with the recommended program reductions and that they are trying to maintain a good recreation program. He agreed that over the long term they should find a better source for funding. He stated that this was a stop gap measure to address the immediate needs for this year. Mr. Moore explained that they surveyed five Cities, of the basic same size, stating that what they found was that all of them have a different funding process. Ms. Olson explained that the goal is not to make money but to be able to fund quality programs. Chair Straumann asked if they have considered other funding options. Council Liaison Larson stated they are open to all ideas and suggestions. Council Liaison Larson mentioned several large businesses that could be approached and suggested that Mr. Moore and Ms. Olson research that possibility.

Arden Hills Parks and Recreation Committee Meeting 5 February 26,2002 • Ms. Olson agreed that approaching the businesses in the community would be a good idea. Council Liaison Larson stated that the Committee should be involved in coming up with funding ideas adding that they have a very aggressive capital budget. Ms. Olson explained that special events are very expensive to run. She stated that including businesses in the process would open the door to potential volunteers to assist in the running of an event. She suggested considering the option of a corporate sponsor for the event versus funding from the Parks and Recreation budget.

He agreed that this would be a good exercise for the Committee to identify what is needed in the parks.

Mr. Moore stated that the City Accountant clarified that the Park Fund is for new and existing structures.
