Chairman Donovan stated that <br />he doesn't anticipate a whole lot more coming out of the quad meetings <br />other than an exchange of information. <br /> <br />COMMISSION INPUT <br /> <br />Chairman Donovan stated that he has been contacted by Mr. Bob Peterson <br />representing the lutheran church on Hwy. 47 and 7th. That church has <br />5 acres of land they would like to develop into ball fields, at their <br />expense, and they are interested in working with the Ramsey Park <br />Commission on this. The church is hoping that once ~the ball fields are <br />developed, the City will take over the maintenance of the fields. <br /> <br />Commission consensus is there is interest in pursuing this proposal. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />commission consensus is to adjourn this regular meeting of the Ramsey Park <br />and Recreation Commission. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 7:38 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Sylvia Frolik <br />Secretary <br /> <br />P & R/March 15, 1984 <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
