;.',Update on budget. balance of Park Dedication fee account. and breakdown of 1999 costs <br /> Mr. Larson stated that he and Paul Palzer (Public Works DirBuiiding Official) drove around the <br /> city to look at and discuss the parks in Centerville. There are several issues that need to be taken <br /> into consideration. Mr. Larson would like to see the budget increased. <br /> Ms. Lien suggested the Park and Recreation Committee establish an Enterprise account so that if <br /> there are funds left at the end of the year, they can be rolled over into the next year. As it <br /> currently is, any funds left at the end of the year, are lost. Ms. Lien mentioned that the Park and <br /> Recreation Committee might want to consider at some point in the future, adding a Park and <br /> Recreation Director or a part time Park and Recreation person who can maintain and follow up <br /> with issues such as park maintenance, rink attendants and/or activities for the youth. If the <br /> committee anticipates any of these things, they will want to increase the budget to cover them all. <br /> Mr. Navin didn't feel the City is ready to promote youth activities through a Park and Recreation <br /> Director. It takes a lot of time and work organizing activities for children. Adding, the City <br /> needs the resources and the location to have these types of events. Lino Lakes offers many <br /> opportunities for the youth, and it is very close by. <br /> Mr. Sweeney suggested sometime in the future, the Park and Recreation Committee may want to <br /> consider hiring a Park and Recreation Director. <br /> Motion by Mr. Larson to set up an Enterprise account in the amount of $50,000 for the <br /> year2000 budget. Motion seconded by Mr. Porter. All in favor. Motion carried. <br /> Mr. Navin requested each member bring back their list of priorities for each park in Centerville to <br /> support the request for a $50,000 budget. <br /> r <br />
