the tree line. A strand of wooven wire has been tempor-
arily installed.
2. Snowmobile Trail - Graser reported the signs have all
been installed.
3. Hockey Rinks - Bob Bull representing PLAY Hockey Association
was seeking additional space to erect hockey rinks. He
was told there is electricity, water and rink area already
identified in Lake Front Park for this purpose and he
should plan on using it. He was going to re-address with
PLAY executive committee to see if a portable rink could
be purchased and installed this year. The Park Board
mentioned there was a building in the Gravel Wash area that
could be fixed-up and relocated to the activity area.
II. Willows Park - No Discussion
III. Boudins Manor Park
A. Chain Link Fence- Tabled until Spring of 1976.
B. Skating Rink - Area is not graded correctly to support a

probably be required next Spring.

stalled on current pole near Boudins Manor Park, for skating

IV. Green Oaks Park
A. Public Hearing - Tooker made presentation of preliminary plans
for Park. Pr-ivate property owners adjacent to the Park Identi-
fied drainage problems since we added fill to the Park.
Lawrence SchweicN identified how area was sloped for drainage
prior to adding fill. It was also identified that the current
ditch in the Park area could be dangerous to children and snow-
mobilers. D. Zwicki - President of Green Oaks Assoc. reported
that at last membership meeting, where 12 out of 22 households
were represented, it was the concensus of the Green Oaks people
to have the Park left as natural as possible. No swings, no
ballfields, etc. Just seed it and plant some trees. A tree
and/or fence type divider should be installed along the Park
property abutting private property for aesthetic purposes.
Graser to have fencing placed around ditch area of Park for
protection of people.
Graser to have Larry Anderson, City Engineer, to contact
Lawrence Schweic~ to review drainage solutions for Park and
private property owners.
Lawrence Schweic~ is willing to donate a five to ten feet of his
property to provide walkway into Park from 150th street.

for Green Oaks Park. Construction to begin no later than May
