The need for a lake filtering system was discussed. A water analysis has been completed, but the test results have not been analyzed. This will be done prior to the November meeting and the Bailey Foundation will be approached for assistance if the test results show that a filtering system is necessary. ITEM 6: GENERAL DISCUSSION AND UPDATE ON GOLF COURSE MANAGEMENT ISSUES Tom Rikkola discussed the lake study report provided by INCOG. There are still unanswered questions concerning the lake dredging. A meeting will be set up with the City Manager to try to resolve some of these questions. Other items discussed were the completion of the entry road to the clubhouse and the part that the Trust will play in that project, and the condition of the greens. There was some feeling that the greens are bumpy and need some work. Plans for a clubhouse were discussed briefly, with the consensus being that such a discussion is probably premature. It was decided that the Larkin Bailey Foundations should be contacted as quickly as possible regarding funds to obtain greens covers. Because of many items that need to be discussed and the need for some long-range planning, Mr Skelton called a special meeting for 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November I - The meeting will be a work session, with no formal action taken. ITEM 7- UNFINISHED BUSINESS W RN Ed Sokolosky moved, seconded by Tom Rikkola to adjourn. Motion carried 4-0 and the meeting was adjourned at 7:15 p.m. Mar4ciaoutwell, Aut ority Secretary
