Commissioner Lindstrom said he is not in favor of concrete curbing because he feels it channels all the runoff directly on course to the Mississippi River instead of letting it dissipate into the ground • to provide moisture where needed, he did agree in this case that the curbing fit the neighborhood.

Sewer 10,400. $20,000. Due to the fact that the "City" owes the "Park Fund" for use of the property for the pump house, the Park Commission was asked to consider a "trade ", meaning that services listed above would be exchanged in lieu of cash owed to the "Park Fund ". This way the "Park Fund" would not have to pay the additional costs due to the "City" for services to be used in the park. Figures relating to the park property where additional parking will be placed. This entire amount to be paid for out of PCIF. Parking Lot $ 8,800. Curb /Gutter 3,000. Gravel Fill 4,000. • $15,800.
