deadline date for the park expenditures needed. The commissioners agreed to review the
draft outline Director Krueger will prepare.

The next steps will be to prepare how much the study will cost per

such as a pond study or a woods study.
Mr. Maurer will return with a tentative outline of soil work and
proposals. He will contact agencies to
see what materials are available at this time.
