Pazks & Recreation Committee Meeting Minutes 07-06-11 stated Public Works has the area marked for the flagpole and kiosk, but he will check with Mr. Burmeister, Trail Project Manager, regarding any grading changes. Mr. Palzer, Public Works Director, had recommended a solar light and a locking mechanism installed higher up on the pole to tie off the flag to prevent vandalism. Mr. Faust is ready to order this equipment with the committee's approval. Mr. Faust plans to donate a flag that belonged to his grandfather who was in the Navy. The committee was in favor of the solar lighting, but was concerned that it wouldn't be bright enough. There is a similar flag with solar lighting in Hunters Crossing which committee members will take a look at. Discussion was had as to adding another solar light or figuring out how to get electric to the flag pole at a later date if it turns out the one solar light does not provide enough lighting. IV.

Consideration of Centerville Lion's Special Use Permit � Fete des Lacs The committee reviewed the Special Use Permit submitted by the Centerville Lions for Fete des Lacs and only had one concern; the section completed by the police refers to the same service `as in past years' which is not clear to those who do not know what service was previously provided. Resurfacing Eagle Park Tennis Court Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director, presented the committee with two bids for resurfacing the tennis court at Eagle Park. Council Member King questioned whether there was a regular maintenance schedule for the court and timing of expending funds for this project.
