COMMUNITY EDUCATION USE OF MURZYN HAL?.
A memo from Casey to the Board members regarding issues of the hall
by Community Education.
The first issue was that on several occasions an exercise class was
the only activity going on in the hall and a private party was
willing to rent the hall. The city loses out on a potential paid
renter.

The second issue is that exercise classes run by Community
Education may be the only event scheduled in the hall for a
particular night. The custodian hours amounted to approximately
$845 in 1991, therefore, the city pays a custodian exclusively for
the purpose of this exercise class.
The third issue is that Community Education operates a preschool at
the hall, Monday through Friday year round. Approximately 250
hours were spent by the custodians during 1991 for their sole
purpose plus the cost of cleaning supplies and paper products that
is purchased by the city.
Ruettimann brought to the Board a problem or concern he has with
Community Education. Ruettimann requested a committee be formed to
iron out any problems that may occur between the Recreation
Department and Community Education. It was suggested that Casey
get in touch with Community Education and set up a meeting date.
Ruettimann in turn will get hold of Steve Smith and/or Jim
Lindstrom to set up a meeting date.
SUMMER MEETINGS
The Board members chose Ostrander, Gauvitte and Prestemon Park
Buildings for the Board meetings in the months of June, July and
August.
REPORTS
PARKS: The ice at the parks is not good, however, attendance has
remained about the same as in previous years. Public Works has
received questions regarding the closing of the 2 skating rinks but
no actual complaints. A modified sweeping broom has been purchased
and helps remove snow along the hockey boards. It was requested
that Jolly obtain measurements of the free skating rink at Huset
Park. The members felt that the east end of the rink was smaller
than maps previous indicated. The lights for Huset skating rink
have been delivered to Public Works.
Huset Park Field #3 Press Box will be started this spring.
The west end of the Mathaire Pool has settled and the Engineer's
will have to evaluate how extensive of a problem it is. It has
been a problem with settlement in the filtration and clrculat~on
pumps. This was first reported to the Board at the August 28, 1991
meeting.
A date will be picked in April to view the parks and give
recommendations for the 1993 budget.
