If you watched the news last night, you heard about Socrates Babacus' plans to build a <br />retractable roof stadium in Lino Lakes east of 20th Avenue. At this point, I would say do <br />not lose any sleep over this proposal. Too many items do not add up. <br /> <br />. I attended the Planning and Zoning meeting on Tuesday evening. The main agenda <br />topic was the public hearing that was scheduled for the property north of City Hall. One <br />person was in attendance at the hearing to express his opposition to having the property <br />rezoned to commercial. <br /> <br />. I attended the Park and Recreation meeting on WedneSday evening. The committee is <br />continuing to make progress on their park goals for 2000. The park and recreation <br />committee is interested in resubmitting an application for the Outdoor Recreation Grant <br />program. The application would include improvements to LaMotte and Royal Meadows <br />Park.. I will be attending an informational grant seminar sponsored by the DNR next week <br />Tuesday. <br /> <br />. The City has received this year's antenna lease payments from both companies that <br />lease space on the watertower. <br /> <br />. I attended the cable operating committee meeting on Tuesday. Legal counsel was <br />present to discuss legislative efforts to eliminate municipal franchise fees that fund local <br />cable programming. Cities are mobilizing to fight the legislation that these select <br />legislator's are proposing. Senator Krentz has contacted the City and she plans to be <br />present at our January 26th Council meeting to hear about City legislative concerns. This <br />will be one item that we will want to mention. <br />. Paul Palzer and Milo Bennett are meeting with the builder of the new Odyssey Lures <br />building this morning. They are going to be reviewing some fire code issues. They are on <br />track to build in the Industrial Park this spring. <br /> <br />. The first community skating night this century is scheduled for Sunday from 4-6 P.M. <br /> <br />. I will be out of the office next week Thursday and Friday on an ice fishing excursion.
