The criteria of the level of play that should be considered is probably the hardest to decide. The question is, what classification does a player have to play before their picture should be hung in the Arena? There are players that have gone onto play Junior Hockey at the A and B level. Other players have gone on to play in the college ranks division 1 - 3, while others have played in Europe and even in the N.H.L. It could be argued that Junior A hockey is the same level of play of division 3 college hockey, there are some college players that have played Junior A hockey before going on to play on a college team. If this tradition is to be continued, the Commission needs to determine the criteria that will be used. The cost of the frame and the picture could be as much as $100.00. The expense of the picture should be with the player, if he or she would like to find funds to help defray the cost of the picture they may do so. A company should be selected to make the frames so that they are uniform. Mike Jackson, from Franklin Builders made the frames that are currently in the Arena. They are made out of oak and are very attractive. The player could be directed to the company that will be making the frames or the Arena could purchase the frame and bill it back to the person. 11) Boards and Commission Policy Joan Schmidt (the City Clerk) has been working on guidelines for City Advisory Boards and Commissions. Attached for your review is the draft version of the policy that has gone to the City Council for approval on August 2"d. I will have the outcome of the approval when we meet on August 3`d. Perhaps Council /Commission Member Dan Tveite can give us a brief overview of the discussion that took place at the Council meeting. 12) Staff Updates A) Summer projects We will be installing 1 '/z" square tubing on the railings of the handicap ramp. The tubing will be welded vertically 4" on center. This will stop kids from running through the railings and will make it a safer area. Once the floor is completed in the Barn, we will begin reinstalling the rubber flooring in the hallway of the Barn that was removed during construction. The four locker rooms in the Barn and the hallway in the Olympic rink have been painted. The doors to the Barn from the lobby have been painted as well as the stairs leading to the bleachers in the Olympic rink. Each ice plant has two compressors; one on each ice plant will have its top end rebuilt. Shaft seals for all the compressors will be inspected to see if they need to be replaced.
