<br /> <br /> <br />8. Renovating the Barn’s Roof <br /> <br />Arena Manager Rich Czech notes that $100,000 was in the CIP for 2009 for <br />renovating the Barn’s roof. An engineer was hired to access the roof to see if <br />there were any immediate dangers and if the entire roof would need to be <br />replaced or if additional roofing materials could be added to the existing and <br />still be structurally sound. The report found that the roof has 5-10 years life left, <br />and that we could add additional material to the roof and still be structurally <br />sound. Czech states that we will have to hire contracts to fix a couple of <br />problem spots due to humidity, but the next major step depends on the <br />availability of funds. Chair Martin suggests putting together a short/long term <br />goals list for the August Commission Meeting as well as the City Council. <br />Finance Director Tim Simon notes that as part of the CIP, the council will go <br />through the goals. <br /> <br /> <br />9. High School Alumni Hockey Game <br /> <br />Arena Manager, Rich Czech notes that we have already had one meeting <br />regarding the game and that we are getting the ball rolling with a tentative date <br />of 7/23/09. We are already gathering information from interested players, and <br />a commitment from Paul Martin to help. The revenue generated would help <br />fund new locker rooms. Czech notes that a second meeting is scheduled for the <br />following week. <br /> <br />10. Ice Rates(revisited) <br /> <br />Discussion takes place regarding the amount of revenue that is generated by <br />high school hockey games, and how much goes to the arena as opposed to the <br />school. Commissioner Barth notes that all other schools in our district charge <br />$7 for adults, and we are still at $6. This could generate an additional $10,000 <br />in revenue. Financial Director Tim Simon notes that while any additional <br />revenue is helpful, we have to weigh the benefits with the current economic <br />situation. Commissioner Barth notes that the student rate should stay at $4. <br />VICE CHAIR JOHNSON MOTIONS THAT COMMISSIONER BARTH <br />BE ALLOWED TO TAKE A REQUEST TO THE SUPERINTENDANT <br />TO RAISE THE HIGH SCHOOL HOCKEY TICKET RATE TO $7 FOR <br />ADULTS, BUT TO KEEP THE STUDENT RATE AT $4. MOTION <br />SECONDED BY FOSS. ALL APPROVED 5-0. Commissioner Barth states <br />that he will have a decision by the next meeting and that he will also look into <br /> <br />
