ICE ARENA OPERATION
MAYOR PETERSON announced that he would be meeting with John McDonough and Stanley
Hubbard to discuss the Ice Arena Operations. Mr. McDonough and Mr. Hubbard were
interested in knowing the extent of the loss the City was experiencing with the Ice
Arena. MAYOR PETERSON said that he would not make any committments on the City's
part. However, he would like to explore the possibility of a lease arrangement with
Mr. Hubbard or any other organization that could handle the Ice Arena Operation.
MAYOR PETERSON said that he questioned the City's ability to continue to subsidize
the Arena Operation and felt that the City should consider providing the ice and the
building and maybe have some other group operate the Arena on a lease arrangement.
Questions were also raised regarding the Park and Recreation Commission's inten-
tion on raising ice time fees. COUNCILMAN MAC DONALD said that he felt the Commission
might raise the fees by only $5.00 if the City adopted the requested budget. The
requested budget contained $40,000 tax levy transfer from the General Fund and COUNCI-
MAN MAC DONALD felt that the Commission would consider this as a revenue source and
not raise the fees by more than $5.00. COUNCILWOMAN AVISE recommended that the Council
representatives to the Commission express the City's request that the fees be raised
to contribute as much revenue as possible from the Arena operations so that the tax
levy transfer could be reduced.
The meeting adjourned at 9:25 P. M.
