Park Commission Minutes <br /> December 8, 2016 <br /> Page 3 <br /> Commissioners Nagel and Adams met with the Forestry Division of the DNR <br /> regarding the Fire Tower. The DNR wants to get rid of the fire tower, possibly <br /> selling it to the City. It is not up to standards and the cost for an inspection is <br /> $18,000 and $100,000 to dismantle it. This subject will come up again as they <br /> want to get rid of it. Mr. Graham asked how much the DNR will pay the City to <br /> take it. Commissioner Nagel stated each piece of state land has to bring in <br /> revenue, such as a lease payment, sale of product, etc. He further stated at the <br /> Thriving Communities meetings there is discussion to make Pequot Lakes a <br /> destination and with the new highway construction completed, all of a sudden the <br /> Fire Tower is visible. No timeframe was given by the DNR. <br /> 7. Adjournment <br /> There being no further business, COMISSIONER NAGEL MOVED TO <br /> ADJOURN THE MEETING. COMISSIONER BRUCH SECONDED THE <br /> MOTION.
