Corrie: Second
•
Kingsford: Moved by Walt, second by Bob to approve the appointment of Tom Hammond
and to re-appoint Wayne Forrey to the Historical Commission, all those in favor?
Opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: All Yea
Morrow. Mr. Mayor, while we are on the Historical Commission, Wayne did you research?
Crookston: We have not adopted the Historical Preservation building code.
Morrow. The UCBC?
Crookston: Right.
Kingsford: I think we need to look at adopting the UCBC.
Morrow. Well, I will pursue it with Daunt again and make sure their opinion is still the same
that it was in February.
Kingsford: The other item is the golf course, what do you guys want to do with that. We
have had some volunteer construction out there. We need to have some better
supervision that is not anything (inaudible). I would like to recommend that we make a
committee that is involved in the golf course construction.
Yerrington: How large of a committee?
Kingsford: I don't think you want it too big or it is unmanageable.
Morrow. Do you have some proposed members?
Kingsford: I would like to propose that we have Watt Morrow, Patsy Fedrizzi, John Ewing,
Bert Meyers, another one or twro of you guys if you want to. Walt should chair that being
a councilman.
Morrow. Probably then we should have five total, a chairman and four members.
Kingsford: Anyone have another suggestion.
Yerrington: How about the manager of the golf course? He is around there more than

anyone else?
Corrie: Who is the manager?
Kingsford: Wally.
Morrow: This is a construction committee right?
•
Kingsford: This is something Patsy has been asking me for since she started raising
funds. I think it is a good idea.
Morrow. Well, candidly I think it makes a certain amount of sense if you are going to build
a golf course to have the local expert have some input as to what is going on to keep you
from making stupid mistakes not that we won't anyway but at least we will eliminate some
of them.
Kingsford: Okay, include Wally? Anyone else?
Yerrington: (Inaudible)
Kingsford: You guys go out there and take a look at it, we have had some snafoos. One
that we have had weeds that are about 8 feet tall out there and those are cut down now.
We need to do something with regard to moving them into stacks and burning them or
something. The three holes are basically roughed in that basically go around the lake. A
green is basically roughed in which will end up being either nine or eighteen. That fairway
has some berming done on it now. Part of a pond is being built, we have two people out
there that donated the equivalent of $10,000 worth of their time for one of those corporate
passes that being Charlie Wood and Larry Gillingham. That work has been proceeding,
Charlie has now put in his amount if the Council approves his rate I think it would be a
good idea to keep him g~~ing on with his scraper and so on. He is showing senne pretty
great expertise in terms of roughing those fairways and building greens.
Corrie: How much do we have in it already?
Kingsford: We are not yet into what we have budgeted from the loan but we will be fast
approaching that certainly that is one of the things that Committee needs to do is to keep
a close eye on that. We have commitment from Terry Cook at Cloverdale Nursery to do
another $10,000 thing in terms of materials to construct a green. I haven't got that
confirmation yet because he woould like to be able to do the work on the other eight greens
as well and wants to make sure that his bid would be competitive that he doesn't put in a
Cadillac when other people might be bidding something less than. Also there is an

individual that John Ewing indicated'to me today is interested in doing some of the trench
work for our sprinkling. So there might be another $10,000 corporate person there as well.
Well that is where we are to, depending on how weather holds as to what transpires yet
this year.
Corrie: (Inaudible) reports back to the Council?
Kingsford: Absolutely.
Yerrington: How about after your tenure of Mayor that your name goes on the list?
Kingsford: If that is what you want to do with me I vuould be glad to try and follow that thing
through.
Morrow: I think that goes without saying.
Kingsford: Well, if you guys agree I would make that as an appointment with your
confirmation.
Yerrington: With the last name on there too.
Kingsford: Let's don't do that until my term is up. Part of my problem is I just don't have
time I can't follow up on this stuff. Once I am not coming in here and taking care of that
I will have some time and will be glad to do that if that is your desire.
Crookston: What were the eve people again?
Kingsford: The five people that I have written down are Walt Morrow, Patsy Fedrizzi, John
Ewing, .Bert Meyers, Wally Lovan. I have talked with all of those except Wally. So what
I am asking for is your confirmation.
Yerrington: I make the motion we approve that list.
Morrow. Second
Kingsford: Moved by Max, second by Walt to approve of my appointment to the Golf
Course Constnaction Committee of Walt Morrow, Patsy Fedrizzi, John Ewing, Bert Meyers,
Wally Lovan, all those in favor? Opposed?
MOTION CARRIED: All Yea
