Discussion Items Lyndale Gardens Development Presentation

Action Items Bandshell Committee Recommendation
Topitzhofer recapped the December activity: the Bandshell Committee was seeking a Best Buy grant, which will eventually require a resolution of support from the City Council, which will
require CSC approval. Butler said that Best Buy is not requiring that a site be definitely chosen to proceed with the project. Topitzhofer said that the group was going to seek a noise
study from a consultant, David Braslow, for $10,000, but the group may consider holding concerts at a variety of locations and conducting surveys of attendees at each location regarding
noise and other site considerations. Thompson moved, seconded by Bornholdt, to recommend approval of a Council resolution committing to $250,000 in capital improvement funds for a community
bandshell and supporting the continued work of the Bandshell Committee to seek further funding for the project. Approved, six ayes, one no (Mangold).
Friends of Wood Lake Board Reappointment
Werner moved, seconded by Bornholdt, to reappoint Rebecca Johnson to a three-year term on the Friends of Wood Lake Board. Approved, ayes all.
