Emergency Management Exercise—The City of College Station was this year's host for the annual emergency management exercise held on May 21. The exercise involved two masked gunmen who robbed a restaurant, shot the evening clerks, and then hijacked a school bus full of kids. In a hurried attempt to get away, the bus hit a tanker full of alcohol-which overturned. That brought hazardous materials into the exercise which ) allowed for testing our Hazmat Team, as well as our SWAT Team and activation of the - Emergency Operations Center. Various organizations throughout the county were involved in the exercise, including Texas A&M University, City of Bryan, Brazos County, RACES, and the two hospitals which cared for the injured victims. The exercise was, critiqued the following week, and though most stated that the overall response was good, communications seemed to be the biggest problem throughout the various agencies. 2. Lincoln Center Air Conditioner — Bids are expected to be opened the week of June 23. Work should commence by the middle of July and be completed by the first of August. That is a month and a half behind schedule, but there was over a month delay on getting the requirements for the contract for the engineer and the engineer has been delayed because of his workload. 3. Wolf Pen Creek Amphitheater has concluded the spring season of our 6th year of operation with three powerful events: A&M CONSOLIDATED HIGH ORCHESTRA CONCERT on May 12 — Over 750 persons attended this event that featured some of the most musically talented teenagers of the Brazos Valley. The concert also featured the Greg Tivas Trio and Karan Chavis. It was a very pleasant, breezy evening and everyone • had a great time. JOHN ANDERSON CONCERT TRADITIONAL AGGIELAND FINAL on May 13 — Sigma Nu Fraternity sponsored this awesome entertainer who is a legend of country music. Unfortunately only 300 attended the concert which we considered to be one of the top musical performances that we have had at the Amphitheater. MIX 104.7 CHILDRENS' FEST on May 16 — Mix 104.7 again came through for the children of our community with a wonderful array of activities. They estimated attendance at 3,000 for Home of Texas A&M University the day although the haze and humid weather was a definite deterrent for the event JAZZ & BLUES FESTIVAL on May 16 — This was the 14th year of this event. The day's attendance was estimated at 1,000. We started performances at 10:00 a.m. and continued until 11:00 p.m. This year's event featured 9 local bands that included: The Big Apple Trio, Karan Chavis, Ruthie Foster, High Chicago, Blue Valentines,Jazz III, The Central Baptist Gospel Jazz Band, T-Buckk, Blue Note All-Stars and AMC Jazz Band. The weather haze and smoke alerts definitely hurt the event The overwhelming humidity as well as the haze made outdoor activities very unpleasant for this particular day.

Adopted this day of May, 1998. Mayor Lynn 1VicIlhaney ATTEST: Hilton H. Mollenhauer 1208 N. Ridgefield Cir. College Station,TX 77840-4339 (409)693-8273 e-mail:bhniC1;ntall.iir rtad.nCL April 27, 1998 SUBJECT: Fishing Wish List I am retired and now often enjoy myself fishing at one of the little lakes in College Station. I am primarily interested in bass or other sport fish and I fish for fun and not for food. This is a marvelous outlet for old people like me and for kids. But,there are always some wishes for more and better. 1. The city should annex the other little lakes associated with,and just south of,the two lakes at Central Park. This property is undoubtedly expensive but this addition would make a good park great. 2. At least one lake in the city should be catch and release using artificial bait and barbiess hooks. Catch and release is common practice for many lakes and even for whole states and is a proven way to guarantee continuous fishing enjoyment. The larger lake at Central Park already has some good bass and perhaps this one should be the catch and release lake. 3. The city should stock more sunfish both for the larger fish to eat and as a sport fish. Large sunfish are especially good sport fish for kids or for anyone using a fly rod or ultra-light tackle. Thanks for your consideration.

The Parks and Recreation Department conducts an on-going urban fishing program in cooperation with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to provide public fishing opportunities for our residents. This program involves the periodic stocking of several ponds in city parks and operation of special fishing events during the year. The ponds are located in Central Park, Cy Miller Park and Gabbard Park. The events are usually oriented for introducing children to fishing with catfish and rainbow trout(winter)being the most common species that are stocked. Sunfish are stocked in the ponds on a periodic basis by TP&WD. We also stock the Adamson Lagoon swimming pool in Bee Creek Park with rainbow trout during one weekend each winter to provide a different type of fishing experience. i.:................... The city is considering the acquisition of additional property adjacent to Central Park as part of a "city center"project that would include a location for a future city hall and other municipal facilities. This tract of land includes one of the ponds that you mention and will likely become an expansion of Central Park, if acquired. The process involves consideration by a citizen's capital improvement committee with approval by the City Council for inclusion on a future bond election which would then require voter approval. The citizen's committee is meeting weekly to consider this and numerous other projects. I will pass your letter • along to Mr.Bill Fox,who is the committee chairman. Concerning the "catch and release" policy for the large pond at Central Park, we will discuss this with Mr. Mark Webb, the local fishery specialist from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. It may be a good option to consider. I have enclosed a couple of items of information from our department that may be useful to you. Please contact David Gerling, our urban fishing program coordinator at 764-3730 or myself at 764-3413 if you need additional information. Thanks once again for your time and interest.
