Members absent: Barbara Schmidt, Jim Maloney
Also presents Eldon Hugelon, Bob Rosene, Paul Hauge
Dale Everson chaired the meeting and he gave a brief budget
report stating that the Village Council had approved a $48,000
budget for the Park Committee for 1974.
A brief discussion of the policy for open and league hockey
was held and it was decided that the Recreation Committee will
check with Mend-Eagan and C.A.A. about their potential schedules
for games and practices.
Bob Rosene and Eldon Hugelon discussed the bids received for
Rahn and McKee park. The main difference in the three construction
bids were in the costs of dirt excavation and the unit price for
logs. Bob Rosene indicated that Westlund Construction, the low
bidder, had done park work in Mendota Heights and had constructed
a park shelter near Valley Jr. High in Apple Valley. Neil Coates
moved and Carolyn Thurston seconded a motion that we recommend
to the council that the low bid of We-tlund Construction be ac-
cepted. All members voted aye. Myrel Lundsten moved and Jan
Callenius seconded a motion that we also recommend to the council
that the lowbo~ Corrigan Electric be accepted for the electrical
contracting. All members voted aye.
After a brief discussion and upon recommendation of the Dev-
elopement Committee, Carolyn Thurston moved and Neil Coates sec-
onded a motion that we drop the planning of a park on the LeMay
Lake Site.
Copies of the new park guide were given to each member.
Neil Coates moved that we adjourn.
Respectfully submitted,
Myrel Lundsten, Acting Secretary
Eagan Village Park Committee
