Letter from Magnuson Properties, Inc. regarding drainage south of their

could be contacted regarding this.
Letter from Joe Weiss regarding the dead end of Spencer Street. Councilman
Reeves ask why this could not be barricaded to stopthru traffic. Council-
man Beck stated he was in the dark and would not take action until an in-
vestigation is made. He stated he was willing to meet with the other Council-
men and Mayor and inspect this property. It was then decided to investigate
this later this week and take it up again at the next Council meeting.
Letter from Mr. Moynahan offering three lots in Florida Shores for a Sub-
Fire Station. Certain restrictions and attachments to be considered before
accepting a deed. Mr. Tedei stated plans for a building were being drawn up
to be presented to the Council for approval, and ask if any provisions were
made in next year's budget for the building. Mayor Shaeffer stated the Budget
for the fire department only covered the present location and not a new
building. Mr. Tedei ask why this had not been considered, when they knew this
was in the making. Councilman Smith stated the budget was not supposed to
take in future building expansion, as it would be up to the new Council coming
in this fall. Councilman Beck stated prior planning is the reason for setting
up a budget and this was the first he had heard of this, but was sure the
Council can furnish the money. Mayor Shaeffer stated there were no provisions
made in the new budget for material, but City equipment could be used. Mr.
Tedei was ask to bring in plans at some future Council meeting for approval.
Mr. Brown, on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce ask about the City donating
money toward printing of Brochures. He stated they were all out of Brochures
and were in need of 10,000. It is good advertising for the City. I think
the Chamber of Commerce done a pretty good job on the last Brochures and we
feel the City should donate to this. Councilman Smith stated the Council
should have some assurance of the cost and samples before commitments. Mayor
Shaeffer stated if the Chamber would secure bids on printing and present them
to the Council at some future date it ....'ould be taken under consideration.
Mr. Beach ask when the City intended to clean up the park at the River by his
property. He stated at the present it looks like a City dump, the trash cans
are terrible and the trash is never emptied. The picnic table is dOvm and
they use mine at the present time. Mayor Shaeffer stated he would see that
this is taken care of.
Mr. Tedei ask about survey on drainage in Florida Shores. He stated Mr.
Swoope was to work with the committee and they had not heard from him. Mayor
Shaeffer stated Mr. Swoope was working on it.
