[5. Receive staff updates regarding current activities, special events, and personnel.]

A FEW UPDATES I WANTED TO GO OVER AND CYNTHIA IS HERE TO DISCUSS A COUPLE OF THESE.

BUT THE FIRST THING IS I WANT TO JUST EXPRESS GRATITUDE FOR YOUR HELP AT THE CLEANUP EVENT.

IT WENT REALLY WELL.

I'M GOING TO LET CYNTHIA KIND OF GIVE THE NUMBERS, IF THAT'S OKAY.

BUT SHE WE HAD A SIMILAR TURNOUT IN PREVIOUS YEARS.

WE, CHASE OAKS, THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR THAT WE CHASE OAKS ACTUALLY REACHED OUT TO US TO HELP US WITH THIS EVENT TO SERVE BREAKFAST.

IT WENT OVER REALLY WELL.

THEY ENJOYED IT AND THEY'VE ALREADY COMMITTED FOR NEXT YEAR.

AND I'LL LET CYNTHIA GO OVER THE NUMBERS.

BUT AGAIN, IT WAS A GREAT EVENT AND I KNOW YOU GUYS PARTICIPATED IN THAT AND WE APPRECIATE IT.

YES, THANK YOU.

SAME HERE.

APPRECIATE EVERYBODY'S HELP.

IT'S ALWAYS GREAT TO SEE THE PARK BOARD OUT THERE HELPING THE COMMUNITY DURING THESE EVENTS LIKE THIS.

I KNOW EVERYBODY APPRECIATES IT, SO WE DO, TOO.

WE HAD A GREAT YEAR.

I COUNTED ABOUT 240 VOLUNTEERS.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY PICKED UP ABOUT 125 BAGS OF TRASH, WHICH EQUALS 2,750 POUNDS.

400 VOLUNTEER HOURS AND 40 FLOWERS WERE PLANTED THAT DAY.

SO JUST A GREAT TURNOUT.

WE HAD LOTS OF GROUPS COME AND HELP THAT DAY.

AND OF COURSE, CHASE OAKS WAS AWESOME WITH THE BREAKFAST FOR ALL THE VOLUNTEERS.

I KNOW EVERYBODY APPRECIATED THAT.

SO IF YOU ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT IT, I'LL ANSWER THOSE.

BUT I'VE GOT MY LITTLE TREE SAPLINGS.

I GOT FOUR OF THEM AND I PUT THEM IN CONTAINERS.

YEAH, I JUST FELT LIKE I NEEDED TO PUT THEM IN THAT TO GET THEM GROWING FIRST BEFORE PUTTING THEM IN THE GROUND.

I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE I'M GOING TO PUT THEM, TO BE HONEST.

BUT I THINK I PROBABLY GOT MORE THAN I KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IN MY YARD WITH THEM.

[00:05:06]

REAL QUICK, HOW WAS THAT IN COMPARISON TO SOME OTHER YEARS? I THINK IT WAS ACTUALLY MAYBE JUST A LITTLE BIT HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR, BUT IT WAS IT WAS COMPARABLE.

I THINK IT WAS PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT MORE.

WE DID. I DON'T KNOW THOSE OF YOU THAT CAME TO THE COUNCIL MEETING, BUT WE WE WE RECOGNIZE AS TREE CITY USA FOR THE 15TH YEAR IN A ROW AND CELEBRATED ARBOR DAY FOR THE FIFTH WAS THIS OUR 15TH YEAR IN ARBOR DAY ALSO.

YES. IT'S ALL TIED TOGETHER.

WELL SORRY 15 ARBOR DAY 14 DOING THE CLEANUP.

15 TREE CITY, 15 ARBOR DAY, 14TH YEAR, WE'VE DONE THE CLEANUP.

YES. YES.

AND ARBOR OR IN THE TREE CITY, USA, THERE'S THIS QUALIFICATION THAT WE APPLY.

WE HAVE TO APPLY EVERY YEAR FOR THAT.

AND IT'S IT'S CENTERED AROUND THE MAINTENANCE AND GROWTH AND PLANTING OF TREES IN YOUR COMMUNITY.

AND YOU CAN YOU CAN INCLUDE BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE TREE PLANTINGS IN YOUR AREA.

SO WE MEET JUST WITH THE GROWTH THAT WE HAVE EVERY YEAR.

WE MEET THAT REQUIREMENT PRETTY EASY.

AND THEN ALSO THE MAINTENANCE HAS TO EQUAL $2 PER CAPITA.

SO AT 30,000, WE GOT TO SPEND 60,000 A YEAR IN OUR IN OUR BUDGET JUST ON MAINTENANCE OF TREES AND VEGETATION AND LANDSCAPING IN OUR CITY.

SO WHICH WE MEET THAT PRETTY EASILY TOO.

SO IT'S A GREAT PROGRAM.

AND IT'S A IT'S A IF YOU NOTICE, WE'VE BEEN 15 AND IF YOU LOOK AROUND THE CITIES AROUND US, THEY'RE LIKE, I THINK THE RULES MAYBE AT 12 OR 13. NOW MURPHY'S LIKE SEVEN AND WILEY'S AT 8 OR 9.

SO WE KIND OF GET OUT IN FRONT OF THAT.

YEAH, APPRECIATE THAT.

WELL, CYNTHIA IS UP THERE.

WE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE BLAST COMING UP ON JULY 3RD.

WE HAD OUR FIRST MEETING ON TUESDAY WITH THE COMMITTEE RED, WHITE AND BLUE BLAST COMMITTEE WHERE AS YOU KNOW, THERE'S BEEN GROWTH AT THE STATION HAS GOTTEN KIND OF CLOSER TO HERITAGE PARK.

WE'RE HAVING TO MOVE THE AREA OF SHOOTING OFF THE FIREWORKS A LITTLE BIT CLOSER SHOULDN'T INTERFERE.

WE HAD SIX INCH SHELLS LAST YEAR.

WE GOT WE'RE GOING TO GO DOWN TO FIVE INCH THIS YEAR.

BUT SHOULDN'T IMPACT THE SHOW A WHOLE LOT.

IT SHOULD BE FINE.

WE'VE I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE BEEN DOWN THERE IN THE HERITAGE PARK AREA, BUT WE'VE DONE THE WIDENED HUDSON.

DRIVE. AND THEN WE ADDED THAT NEW PARKING LOT.

CYNTHIA'S GOT SOME GREAT IDEAS HOW TO INCLUDE THAT PARKING LOT IN OUR EVENT.

THE GREEN SPACE IS SMALLER THAN IT HAS BEEN IN THE PAST, BUT I THINK WHAT WE HAD ON THE VENDORS THAT WE HAD ON THE GRASS LAST YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO PUT IN THE PARKING LOT SO WE CAN UTILIZE THAT.

BUT WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING BOOKED.

I'LL LET YOU TALK ABOUT THE SPONSORS AND VENDORS, BUT IT SHOULD NOT CHANGE A WHOLE LOT FROM PREVIOUS YEARS FOR THIS UPCOMING YEAR.

YEAH. SO WE WANT TO UTILIZE THAT PARKING LOT ACTUALLY, I THINK IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE GOOD BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN SIT.

IN THAT GRASS AREA, LIKE FILL THE WHOLE GRASS AREA UP AND THEN MOVE THE VENDORS OVER TO THE PARKING LOT.

AND THEN WE'VE ALSO GOT SOME WE HAVE NINJA NATION COMING OUT.

THEY'RE GOING TO PUT UP A BIG OBSTACLE COURSE AND WE'RE GOING TO PUT THAT IN THE PARKING LOT THERE.

SO THAT'LL BE THAT'LL BE FUN.

THEY'RE ACTUALLY ONE OF OUR SPONSORS THIS YEAR.

UM, WE'RE DOING REALLY WELL ON THE VENDOR BOOTH VENDORS THIS YEAR.

WE'VE ALREADY GOT 30 AT THIS POINT, WHICH NORMALLY WE DON'T HAVE 30 AT THIS STAGE IN REGISTERING PEOPLE.

AND THEN WE'VE GOT OF COURSE FOOD VENDORS ALWAYS ARE COMING IN.

WE'VE GOT 12 OF THOSE AND THEN WE HAVE ABOUT SEVEN SPONSORSHIPS SO FAR.

SO I'M EXCITED.

THINGS ARE GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR.

WE'RE STILL DOING THE PETTING ZOO AND THE CARNIVAL RIDES, WHICH WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST AND SOME YARD GAMES OUT THERE, BUT REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE NINJA NATION SPONSORSHIP AND BRINGING OUT ONE OF THOSE OBSTACLE COURSES.

SO THAT'LL BE FUN. AS FAR AS THE PARKING, BE THE SAME, WE'LL HAVE THE HIGH SCHOOL THERE FOR PUBLIC PARKING ALONG WITH AS YOU KNOW, IF YOU'VE BEEN DOWN THERE ALL THE ANY PUBLIC PARKING AVAILABLE ANYWHERE AROUND THE HERITAGE, THE STATION HIGH SCHOOL ALL THAT IS PRETTY MUCH USED UP.

SO, YEAH, WE'RE EXCITED.

IT'LL BE IT'S OUR BIGGEST EVENT OF THE YEAR BY FAR.

I THINK THE NUMBERS LAST YEAR JUST AROUND THE HERITAGE, JUST AROUND HERITAGE PARK, NOT THE HIGH SCHOOL, NOT ACROSS THE STREET AT HUDSON.

HUDSON ACROSS THE STREET OR THAT SAME SIDE.

HUDSON IS ACROSS THE STREET AND SO ON.

[00:10:01]

SO IF YOU EXPAND THAT OUT, PROBABLY 18 TO 20.

SO. LOOK, LOOK.

WHAT IS THE YOU TALKED ABOUT THE REDUCED GOING FROM 6 TO 5, SIX INCH SHELLS.

FIVE SHELLS TO FIVE INCH.

WHAT IS THAT? WHAT GAIN DOES THAT.

WHAT'S IT? LESS MONEY? YEAH.

WHAT'S THE PURPOSE OF IT? BECAUSE THE THE RADIUS FOR.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE RADIUS IS? SIX INCH.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE A 500 FOOT RADIUS.

FIVE INCH, I THINK IT'S 480 FOOT RADIUS AND 480 PUTS US WHERE WE CAN STILL DO ALL OF OUR ACTIVITIES, WHERE WE WANT TO, WHERE WE'RE PLANNING THEM WITHOUT INTERFERING WITH WHAT WE WANT TO DO AND HAVE IT IN A PLACE THERE.

SO THAT'S THE REASON.

I MEAN, I KNOW THE APARTMENTS AT THE STATION WON'T BE DONE UNTIL FEBRUARY, BUT STILL, WHEN THOSE GET COMPLETE, WE'LL HAVE TO REVISIT WHERE WE PUT THEM BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE SEEN THOSE APARTMENTS ARE RIGHT ON THE LEDGE THERE.

SO DOES IT CHANGE LIKE HOW HIGH OR HOW BRIGHT THEY ARE OR IT'S THE FALLOUT THAT'S THE FALLOUT.

SO YEAH, A LITTLE BIT SMALLER, BUT I DON'T THINK WE'LL BE ABLE TO TELL BECAUSE WE WENT FROM EIGHT INCH ONE YEAR TO SIX AND I HONESTLY COULDN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE.

THE DIFFERENCE? YEAH. YEAH.

WELL, WHEN WE FIRST STARTED, EVEN BEFORE PYRO SHOWS, THE LARGEST WAS FIVE INCH.

AND THEN WE ACTUALLY WHEN WE STARTED WITH FIRE SHOWS, WE WENT UP TO SIX AND EIGHT INCH SHELLS.

AND THEN WE'VE KIND OF TAPERED THAT DOWN.

UM, I KNOW IN THE PAST WE'VE HAD PARK BOARD MEMBERS HELP, BUT THAT THAT'S REALLY NOT NECESSARY ANYMORE.

IS THAT CORRECT? YOU'VE GOT PLENTY.

I THINK WE'RE GOOD. I THINK WE USED TO HAVE GAMES AND STUFF, BUT WE'LL STILL DO THE GAMES AND HAND OUT HULA HOOPS AND STUFF.

YOU'RE WELCOME TO HELP IF YOU LIKE.

EVEN IF YOU DON'T HELP, YOU'LL GET A VIP PASS.

SO IT'S NOT ON.

THERE'S NO CONDITION WITH THAT.

WHAT'S THAT? YEAH.

MARSHMALLOW'S GOING TO BE MARSHMALLOW COUNCIL.

COUNCIL? THE MARSHMALLOW STUFF.

NO COUNT, NO COUNCIL GAMES.

WE DIDN'T DO COUNCIL GAMES LAST YEAR.

WE JUST DID. I KNOW IT DIDN'T HAPPEN LAST YEAR.

I DIDN'T KNOW. CAN WE BRING THEM BACK? THAT STUPID HUMAN TRICKS ARE OVER.

ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING TO BE IN THE MARSHMALLOW CONTEST? IT WAS PIZZA, THOUGH. WE MIGHT.

I MIGHT DO THAT. OKAY.

GOSH, WE JUST HAVE EVENTS GOING ALL THE TIME.

BUT THEY JUST HAD PICKLEBALL HAD A PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT.

WE JUST HAD OUR SECOND PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT.

THAT WAS ON SATURDAY.

WE HAD 32 PARTICIPANTS.

THIS YEAR WE DID THREE CATEGORIES MEN'S, WOMEN'S AND MIXED DOUBLES, AND ALL THE TEAMS GOT A T SHIRT, SNACKS, WATERS.

EVERYBODY HAD A GREAT TIME.

I THINK JUST TO NAME OFF THE WINNING TEAMS WAS QUACK ATTACK, FIRE AND FINESSE, THE BOLIVAR'S KITCHEN CHICKENS AND HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT. SO I HAVE ALL THE PICTURES ARE POSTED ON FACEBOOK.

IF YOU WANT TO LOOK YOU CAN SEE THE WINNERS AND EVERYONE HAD A GOOD TIME SO EXCITED AND IF YOU I THINK I MENTIONED THIS LAST MEETING BUT ON MONDAY NIGHT'S COUNCIL MEETING, CYNTHIA WILL BE CYNTHIA AND I WILL BE PRESENTING TO THE COUNCIL AS WE MOVE FORWARD A PROPOSAL FOR HOURS OF OPERATION AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER.

IT'S GONE WAY BUSY.

I MEAN, SHE'S BUSY ALL THE TIME AT THE CENTER AND WE WANT TO OFFER UP SOME TO THE COUNCIL SOME CONSIDERATIONS OF ADDING MORE HOURS TO THE WEEK, INCLUDING OPENING ON MONDAYS.

SO AND HOW THAT HOW THAT RELATES TO STAFFING.

SO WE'LL BE DOING THAT ALONG WITH THE LIBRARY ALSO MONDAY NIGHT.

SO YOU GET A CHANCE TO TUNE US IN OR YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME AND SEE HOW THAT GOES.

I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE.

IS THAT IT? THAT'S IT. IS THERE ANY OTHER STUFF? THANK YOU. WE WILL NOW DISCUSS AND RECEIVE AN UPDATE ON JK SACHSE PARK AND THE

[6. Discuss and receive an update on J.K. Sachse Park and the grand opening]

SO ORIGINALLY THAT IS WHY WE WANTED TO MEET TONIGHT AND I WAS GOING TO SCHEDULE A TOUR TO THE JK SACHSE PARK AND GO LOOK AT IT AND TURN THE TURN THE SPLASH PAD ON AND WALK TOUR.

THAT WAS THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THIS MEETING.

HOWEVER, THE ANTICIPATION OF WEATHER ON SATURDAY, WE'RE AND WE'RE NOT QUITE FINISHED WITH A COUPLE OF THINGS I THINK ONCE WE PUSH THE DATE OFF IT SLOWED SOME THINGS DOWN AT THE PARK.

WHERE WE THE FOLLOWING WEEK WE CAN GET THE VENDORS.

[00:15:05]

SO THE FIRST REALLY AVAILABLE MAKEUP DATE IS JUNE 3RD, AND WE ARE SHOOTING TO HAVE THE PARK OPEN TO THE PUBLIC BEFORE THAT.

BUT WE'LL STILL HAVE THE GRAND OPENING ON JUNE 3RD.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE'S BEEN OUT THERE, BUT THE SOD IS COMPLETELY PUT IN.

THE IRRIGATION, WE PUT IN A SPLIT RAIL FENCE TO BORDER THE PROPERTY.

AND THEN ON THAT END THAT WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THE VOLLEYBALL GOING INTO THE ROAD.

WE PUT A WROUGHT IRON FENCE THERE TO KEEP THE BALL IN.

THE LIGHTING IS DONE, THE SAND'S IN.

WE'LL PUT THE NETS UP FOR THE VOLLEYBALL COURT RIGHT WHEN WE'RE READY TO OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

SO THAT PART'S OPEN AS WELL AS THE OTHER FEATURES AT THE PARK.

THEY FINISHED ALL OF THE PAVERS, THE SIDEWALK, THE SOD.

UM. THERE'S SOME MINOR REPAIRS ON THE STONEWORK ON BOTH THE RESTROOM AND THE PAVILION, WHICH THEY WERE WORKING ON IT TODAY.

I THINK IT'S DONE.

THEY GOT ALL THEIR INSPECTIONS DONE.

ALL THE PERMITS ARE CHECKED OFF.

WE'VE GOT A FEW THINGS TO DO ON THE SPLASH PAD, WHICH THEY'LL DO THAT.

THEY'LL FINISH THAT UP NEXT WEEK.

AND THEN WE HOPE TO BE OPEN MAY 20TH.

BUT IF NOT FOR SURE, WE WANT TO OPEN THAT WEEK OF MEMORIAL WEEKEND TO LET PEOPLE USE IT.

WE'LL ANNOUNCE THAT IT'S OPEN.

BUT AGAIN, THE GRAND OPENING ITSELF IS SCHEDULED FOR JUNE 3RD.

AND WE'VE GOT ALL THE VENDORS STILL COMING IN.

IT'S 95% RAIN ON THIS SATURDAY.

WE WOULD IF WE WAITED.

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A TOUGH SELL FOR SATURDAY.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, I MEAN, WE'RE EXCITED.

IF YOU COULD GO THERE AND WALK THE PARK AND AGAIN, JUST THIS IS IN PHASES.

THIS IS ONE AND PART OF PHASE TWO.

SO YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF GREEN SPACE.

THERE'S A LOT OF OPEN NOT A TON OF LANDSCAPING OUTSIDE OF RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF THE PAVILION.

SO YOU'LL HAVE VOLLEYBALL, A TON OF TRAILS, A LOT OF GRASS, AND THEN YOU HAVE ALL THAT STUFF SHOVED IN THAT CORNER WITH THE SPLASH PAD, THE PAVILION AND THE RESTROOMS. SO KEEP THAT IN MIND.

EVEN THE AREA WHERE WE'RE GOING TO DO THE PICKLEBALL COURTS, IT'S JUST A GREEN SPACE.

WE PUT SOD DOWN PLENTY OF ROOM FOR FOR OPEN PLAY AREA FOR PEOPLE AND IT'S GETTING USED AS FAR AS I KNOW, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN IN THE PAVILION AT NIGHT AND I DON'T KNOW IF KIDS GO AND PLAY IN THE SAND, BUT YOU TELL PEOPLE IT'S BEEN IN THE SAND.

BUT IT'S COMING ALONG.

PHASE ONE IS ALMOST DONE.

AND THEN WE WILL TALK ABOUT PHASE TWO AGAIN, ALL OF THE MONEY.

FOR PHASE SEEING FOR PHASE WE ARE LIKE, WE DON'T HAVE ANY EXTRA MONEY IN THE MTD TO GO JUMP INTO PHASE TWO RIGHT NOW.

IT'S GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE WHILE TO BUILD THAT UP.

IT'S EXCITING.

ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PARK? I THINK, GOING BE LIKE SCHEDULED.

FOOD TRUCKS, ARE THEY? LIKE, IS IT GOING TO COME EVERY WEEK OR IS IT JUST KIND OF WHENEVER THEY WANT TO COME, THEY LET US KNOW? OR DO THEY HAVE TO ASK US TO COME SET UP THERE? SO THERE'S DIFFERENT WAYS THEY DON'T HAVE TO ASK TO COME.

IF THEY'RE USING THEIR OWN POWER, THEY WANT TO COME AND JUST SET UP.

THEY CAN DO THAT.

IF IT'S AN EVENT THAT WE SCHEDULE, OF COURSE, WE'LL DO THAT.

THE IDEA AND ALSO IF SOMEBODY IF WE GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE RESERVE THE PAVILION, PEOPLE CAN HAVE FOOD TRUCKS.

AND THAT'S I DON'T THINK WE HAVE ANYTHING IN OUR CITY POLICY.

ON IF THE PARKS PACK CAN THEY JUST COME UP AND PULL UP AND SELL OUT OF THEIR TRUCK? I'LL HAVE TO LOOK INTO THAT.

THE IDEA FOR US IS WE WANTED IT THERE FOR CITY EVENTS.

PART OF THE PROPOSAL THAT CYNTHIA IS GOING TO GIVE TO THE COUNCIL THAT WE'RE GOING TO GIVE TO THE COUNCIL IS WITH ADDED HOURS ADDED STAFF.

WE ALSO WANT TO ADD THERE'S A DEMAND IN THAT SURVEY FOR MORE EVENTS, SPECIAL EVENTS, AND WE WOULD LIKE TO START SOME KIND OF SUMMER CONCERT SERIES AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH AT THAT PARK.

AND SO THAT'D BE THAT'D BE IDEAL FOR FOOD TRUCKS ON THOSE NIGHTS.

SPLASH PADS, SAND, VOLLEYBALL.

AND LIKE I SAY, WE HAVE THAT HUGE OPEN AREA.

I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ONE OF THE LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL BANDS COME AND PUT ON CONCERTS AND STUFF.

AND WE'RE OPEN TO ANYTHING.

I LIKE THAT IDEA. SO, YEAH.

[00:20:02]

ANYTHING ELSE? WELL, I GUESS WE JUST NEED TO SET OUR UPCOMING BOARD MEETING DATE.

[7. Set upcoming Board meeting date.]

SO THAT WOULD BE AFTER THE GRAND OPENING.

DO WE NEED TO MEET BEFORE THE GRAND OPENING? IT'S UP TO YOU GUYS. YEAH, WE CAN DO.

I WOULD LIKE. I WOULD LIKE TO.

WHAT'S THAT? WHAT'S THAT? THURSDAY BEFORE.

FIRST. YOU WANT TO JUST DO IT THEN? I THINK SO. I DON'T HAVE MY CALENDAR, BUT I'M SURE THAT'S TURN OFF.

YEAH, JUST LIKE, TURN OFF THE SPLASH PAD ON, WALK AROUND.

YEAH. SO MAYBE INSTEAD OF MEETING HERE.

SO WHAT? SO WHAT WE COULD DO, WE COULD MEET THEN AND THEN.

BECAUSE I KNOW COUNCIL IS TAKING ALL OF JULY OFF.

AND MAYBE WE LOOK AT PUSHING BACK OUR NEXT MEETING TILL AFTER.

YEAH, BUT WE WANT TO MEET HERE OR JUST MEET, LIKE OUT THERE AT THE PAVILION OR SOMETHING ON THE FIRST IN THE PAST WE'VE MET HERE AND WE JUST TAKEN THE VAN OVER THERE.

BUT IF YOU WANT TO MEET OUT THERE, I DON'T KNOW.

IS THERE ANYTHING AGAINST THAT MEETING THERE? COUNCILMAN FRANKS? YOU GUYS OKAY WITH THAT? YEAH. YEAH, WE'LL SAY PAVILION AT THE NEW PARK ON JUNE 1ST.

WITH THAT I BELIEVE THE MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
