After review of the minutes, LeTendre made the motion to accept the minutes, Pelton second, unanimously accepted. The P &Z and Council minutes were reviewed, with some discussion on the changes in the grading plan in Centerville Heights, and the bid on the tennis courts. Orville Hughes, Public Works Director, reported on a ball tournament held by Waterworks in which no beer permit or damage deposit was taken out. In this case, they were given the opportunity to purchase the above permits, but in the future, the tournament will be closed down.

Orville Hughes also reported that lumber was purchased for the sandbox in Royal Meadows Park. P &R will decide on the location of the sandbox at the September P &R meeting. Dan Tourville will be dragging the pea rock in the parking lot in Central Park, and will grade the fill on the driveway in the Cedar Street Park. Walter Neumann informed P &R that garbage cans were being overturned at the Royal Meadows Park and suggested securing them to a cement slab. The moving of the hockey rink to Central Park is on hold until LeTendre attends the Lions meeting at the end of the month. LeTendre suggests that P &R consider a temporary warming house due to the lack of funds at this time. TO RECOMMEND To wry COUNCI LeTendre made a motionnto invest no additional monies in the tennis courts at the present site due to the possible widening of Main Street, and the existing base of the present court. Estimates on a brand new tennis court in a new location, either another area on the school property, or in one of the existing parks, was comparable to the estimate to repair the old tennis court, Paschke second, unanimously accepted. A letter was drafted to the Hockey Association requesting their assistance in helping to fund the moving of the hockey rink to Central Park, either with volunteerism, or monies. P &R inquires of the City Clerk as to whether the lights in the hockey rink are the City's. -1-
