Park Board Minutes <br /> January 11, 2007 <br /> Page 4 <br /> 11 . Budget Update <br /> Park Board Budget for 2007 is $15,200. Park fund balance is $42,300.00. <br /> Sandy Peine stated that the Council made a motion for the Park Board to <br /> spend down the balance and after 2-3 years they will levy for the fund. <br /> Park Dedication Fund balance is $40,007.97. The Board could use this <br /> fund to purchase playground equipment for the Trailside Park. <br /> Commissioner Samuelson gave quote of approximately $6,400.00 for a <br /> slide, merry-go-round, swings & sand box. That would leave <br /> approximately $2,700.00 for something for older children. <br /> 12. Playground Equipment for Trailside Plat <br /> Tabled for February meeting <br /> 13. Other Business <br /> Mayor Malecha gave an update from David Anderson regarding Band <br /> Concerts. He has written a letter to 10 different bands and is waiting to <br /> hear if there are any commitments for this summer. <br /> After he gets a commitment from these bands he will apply for a 3-Wings <br /> grant to help with funding this project. <br /> He would like to have the concerts on Saturday nights at 7:00 P.M. <br /> starting the later part of June, the month of July and a couple in August. <br /> He mentioned free popcorn and possibly selling soft drinks (maybe this <br /> would help to off-set some funding). <br /> He asked each band to let him know if they need sleeping <br /> accommodations. We could possibly get a package rate for a large group <br /> (not at our expense). If a military band is coming, it may be possible to <br /> get the VFW or Legion to help with funds if needed or a meal. Asking <br /> private businesses to support a band was also discussed. <br />
