PRAB asked Dale Clark to send a memo to the City Board

Center Boards, requesting moneys for a building, a pool,
and land acquisition for a satellite complex. Said
facilities would include space for gymnastics, dance,
judo, karate, handball, racquet ball, and meeting rooms.
Presently, the Youth Center is planning a fund drive for
renovation of the Youth Center Pool. Matching funds
could be accepted for money which would be raised.

these Minutes.
III. BRIGHAM PROPOSED PARK - Clark
As a follow up to the PRAB request, Clark delivered the
$75,000 appraisal to the Brigham's who expressed dis-
appointment at the low figure. Brigham stated, however,
that if PRAB is interested in pursuing the Park proposal,
they will, at their own expense get a second appraisal.
Clark will draft a contract and/or visit with the
Brigham's to see whether or not the proposed park
project is mutually agreeable.
