OLD BUSINESS
Conference Center Advisory Committee Member Vacancies
Several applications had been received. The increased interest was attributed to the posting of the
Committee minutes on the Internet. The members of the Advisory Committee reviewed the
applications. The applications must first go to the Parks and Recreation Board to be approved
before any appointments are made to the Advisory Committee. The Conference Center needs to
fill three vacancies. The purpose of the Conference Center Advisory Committee is to study the
concerns at hand, make recommendations and give advice to the Conference Center staff and the
Parks and Recreation Board on areas of community interest. The Advisory Committee is
especially useful when they serve as a source of ideas and as a messenger to "get the word out"
to the community. Citizens may apply on the Internet or call 764-3720 for an application.
NEW BUSINESS
Conference Center Advisory Committee Goals or Accomplishments for the upcoming 12 months
The Committee discussed several possible goals for the upcoming 12 months. The Committee
members also expressed an interest in occasionally attending a Parks and Recreation Board
meeting.
