, Landscaoe Ms. DeVine explained that she received bids from Goetz Landscape & Irrigation, Inc. and Kline Design & Landscape Inc. Ms. DeVine received quotes for landscaping around the signs of Royal Meadows Park, Eagle Park and Acorn Creek Park (includes garden wall block). The bid from Goetz Landscape came in at $1,937.90 while the bid from Kline Design came in at $2399.70 - both bids were for all three (3) parks. Motion by Ms. DeVine, seconded by Mr. Porter to hire Goetz Landscape & Irrigation, Inc. to install the landscaping around the signs at Royal Meadows Park, Eagle Park and Acorn Creek Park.

Mr. Porter suggested hiring a part-time person ranging from $7.00 to $ 11.00 per hour. He felt the person hired could work Saturdays for the entire summer, help coordinate events with the YMCA, and attend the Park and Recreation meetings. Mr. Navin felt it would be necessary for that person to also work with the Public Works Department during the week.
