City Council Study Session — 09/20/04 <br />DRAFT Minutes - Page 7 <br />currently leased out to other agencies, but were still owned by <br />the School District, allowing for District programs that could be <br />relocated to those buildings, and other space leased out. <br />Dr. Thein publicly thanked the Committee members for their <br />time and efforts in performing their in-depth study of financial <br />and facility considerations. <br />Lloyd C. Nielsen Performing Arts Center Dedication <br />In conclusion, Dr. Thein invited Mayor Klausing, City <br />Councilmembers, and the community to celebrate the dedication <br />of the Lloyd C. Nielsen Performing Arts Center on Sunday, <br />October 17, 2004 at 2:00 p.m. in the Roseville Area High School <br />Auditorium with performances scheduled by Roseville Area <br />School's Students. A public reception, hosted by the Roseville <br />Rotary Club, is scheduled immediately following the dedication <br />ceremonies. <br />Dr. Thein noted that Dr. Lloyd C. Nielsen had served District <br />No. 623 for over 17 years as Superintendent of Schools, and had <br />provided a sterling reputation at the local, state and national <br />levels, and featured many innovative initiatives that helped make <br />the District a lighthouse school district. <br />Dr. Thein advised that this would be the culmination of <br />improvements made to retrofitting the front of the auditorium, <br />improving acoustics, and other refurbishing efforts ongoing. Dr. <br />Thein noted that the acoustics were recognized as "excellent," <br />and would allow for alternative facility resource funding, as well <br />as making the orchestra pit safer through use of a hydraulic <br />system for raising and lowering the stage. <br />Mayor Klausing thanked Dr. Thein for his update on District No. <br />623, and for the invitation to the dedication ceremonies, and <br />encouraged the public to attend the event. <br />Dr. Thein thanked Mayor Klausing, City Councilmembers and <br />citizens for their attention and interest, and advised that when the <br />Committee report was completed, he would share a copy with <br />City Manager Beets to distribute to the City Council. <br />Lloyd C.
