MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Ice Arena Commission, Members <br />FROM: Rich Czech, Arena Manager <br />DATE: September 28, 2004 <br />SUBJECT: Agenda Memo -September 28, 2004 Special Meeting <br />3) School District Referendum <br />This fall the School District is proposing a bond referendum for $87 million. Attached <br />for your review is some information I received when I attended one of the informational <br />meetings that the School District held. John Barth, the District Activity Director will be <br />at the Commission meeting to discuss the referendum. <br />4) Barn Old Boards <br />As you may be aware of, the city was excepting sealed bids on the used boards. The <br />bids were due by Thursday September 23~`~ at 2:00 pm. At that time there was one bid for <br />$1,068.73. The only advertising that was done was through the local paper. This was so <br />that we would give the community the chance to bid on the boards before they were <br />advertised to other communities. <br />Our next step would be to except this bid, or to advertise statewide and in the local paper <br />to get a higher bid. I would recommend that we advertise the boards statewide in all trade <br />publications and newspapers that would be appropriate. <br />5) Goal Setting Session with City Council <br />The City Council is asking every Commission and Board to consider their top goals for <br />2005. The City Council has schedule a session for October 1 lth at 6:30 pm at the Lions <br />Park to discuss the priorities each Commission and Board has for next year. <br />Depending on if the School Districts Referendum passes or not may impact what or main <br />goals will be for 2005. If the Referendum does not pass there are several items that the <br />city will have to look at in the next few years, Roof for the Barn, Office space, bigger <br />lobby, and a storage maintenance room addition. These items are not needed in 2005, <br />however they should be considered in the "big picture" of the Cities priorities in the <br />future. I have included a copy of the Arena's Capital Improvement Plan for the next <br />seven years; the items for 2004 have been completed. <br />
