Elk River Public Library Board Page 2 November 17,2015 III No city staff present. 6. General Business 6.1.c Patio Furniture ■ Chair Dietz wants the Board to think about adding permanent patio furniture for next year. The City is unable to secure the existing patio furniture at the end of each day because the library closes at 8pm,well after City staff have gone home. For safety sake, Chair Dietz would like to consider adding permanent benches. The City doesn't have a budget for this so it could possibly come out of the Library Board budget or Friends might be interested in an `In Memory'bench(s). This will go back on the agenda in January when Tim Sevcik, the new Park Superintendent, attends the Library Board meeting. Mary will check with the Rotary Club to see if she can find out what company the bench at Bailey Pointe Park came from. 6.1.d 2016 Meeting Dates S .4110 Chair Dietz reported that the tentative dates for 2016 include the changed date in November to accommodate the holiday. If these dates are approved in advance and posted, then the November 2016 meeting doesn't need a special posting. Moved by Mary Eberley and seconded by Sarah Holmgren to approve the meeting dates for 2016 as presented. Motion carried 4-0. 6.2 Old Business ■ Statue Update: There was a discussion about moving the windmill to an area that gets more wind/movement;however, the cost was quoted at $3,500 so the City and the Economic Development Authority (EDA) decided not to move the windmill. The EDA is funding some landscaping around the windmill; details are in the Park report. A video about the windmill was viewed. The link to the video is as follows: https://youtu.be/SGNcQkL6eOq. Chair Dietz also asked for two pictures of the windmill to be included in the minutes as follows: ill 1-IUEIE1 IT NATURE
