Several councilmen were
critical of the 65 cents per

Community Schools director
Mike Lang, who is heading up
the project.
Tentative arrangements

for the purchase of 150 pairs of

The skates would be put to

Tentative plans call for youth, $150 per month to allow public,
adult and family skating times, dumping at the site.

dump hours, having to sort
