Several complaints were aired dealing with work not being done that were on a list submitted to Kayo McGillivray before he left on vacation. The question was raised as to whether the three persons hired for beautification projects could do the sanding on the barrels in order to get them placed before long. This item will be discussed with Mr. McGillivray upon his return. The Commission developed a work list, some of which should be done on a regular basis. They are: 1) 1 or 2 days (say Tuesday and Thursday) empty trash, 2) beach trash & glass picked up, 3) outhouses cleaned 3 times a week, 4) more barrels put. out (as soon as they are finished) especially at the end of Forest Drive where there are none, 5) get the donated barrels sanded, painted, and placed, 6) place signs over barrels relating to fines for littering, 7) cut grass on regular schedule. The Committee'discussed aspects of the work already done stating that better use could be made of the time spent doing tasks, and a need for some tools to aid in the care of the grass that is already growing and about to be planted. b.

Trash Barrels This item taken care of above with the meeting to be held with Kayo McGillivray regarding the sanding of the barrels. Candy Nugent stated that a business would be willing to donate the space and materials if the Committee could do the preparation work and the actual painting of the barrels. 5. NEW BUSINESS Not an item on the agenda, the Committee discussed the.destruction of 3 wheelers and motorcycles. It has been noted that areas all around the City are being destroyed. The Committee recommended a letter be sent to the Off-Road Vehicles Committee stating support for their efforts and a letter to the City Council recommending strong monitoring and observation of the 2 and 3 wheelers. The efforts of the Committee are worth nothing if these vehicles are allowed to destroy those efforts before they have a chance. The Committee next discussed ideas for obtaining trees for the park strip. With the limited funds the trees cannot be purchased. It was finally decided that Annette Saling will be a committee to look into the matter. 6. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD Diar~ Taylor and Paula McKeckney asked to be heard regarding the issue of trees being removed from city owned land. s. The ladies reiterated what they had spoken of at the Planning Commission meeting and the City Council and asked the Beautification Committee for support in their efforts to have the City retain the trees on City owned land. The Committee discussed the issue at length presenting both pros and cons with an effort being made to point out .that some times it is better to clear the land and relandscape professionally rather than attempt to retain trees that will eventually fall. .Rose Anna Sheldon cited a recent phone conversation with Mr. Aase and Mr. Schilling who stated that they would be re-landscaping their lot, that being the Uptown Motel, the lot in question. 7.
