7 <br />PROGRESSIREPORTS (CONT'D <br />Mr. Wigg ns (Cont'd) .... legislature during the last session; Senate <br />Enrolled Act No. 83, which takes effect September lst of this year. <br />Mr. Wiggins has a copy of the legislation for which there was very <br />substant al discussion of its content from the floor, most of which <br />was deal with. He suggested that copies of this be provided to the <br />Commissi n and legal staff. Mr. Nimtz asked if we had not been in <br />compliance with this in advance of the law. Mr. Wiggins replied that <br />on the basis of the discussions heard that night we have been very good <br />boys. Before this law, much concerning this was vague and the law was <br />needed to clear up much of this. Jeanne Derbeck added that what is <br />important is that if one wanted to hear the content of a particular <br />meeting that person should not be kept away but very much invited to attend. <br />Mr. Wiggins mentioned that this is considered a matter of public interest <br />because this concerns all of us in one fashion as members of this Commission, <br />and, as members of this community so that we might know what other groups <br />are requ red to do and that we might know what information is available <br />to us nor only by the press, but that these meetings are open to the public <br />to participate and know what is going on. Jeanne Derbeck added that there <br />were other officials who came to us from other counties and cities in this <br />corner o Indiana and I must say we got a terrible impression of LaPorte <br />County. Mr. Wiggins added that the president of this county council was <br />looking at an item that covers political caucuses because these are exempt <br />of this 'aw, also this spells out that this is not to be used as a subtrafuge, <br />and he said as long as it is part of a political party, (they had seven <br />Democrats and one Republican) he would tell the Republican to stay home. <br />You can ee what his attitude was about the whole thing. <br />Mr. Brownell said he had an announcement on the South East Park at Trail <br />and Elder Streets, there is to be a dedication of the park on July 23 <br />to re-name it the Dean Arthur Johnson Park. This is the park where we <br />cleared the land for tennis courts, etc. <br />Mr. Crig ton was recognized by Mr. Nimtz and he extended his apologies to <br />the Commission for the number of errors on the Change Orders of today's <br />meeting. He also apologized for a mis- statement earlier, the cost estimates <br />for labor/material costs discussed under New Business B -4, our cost estimates <br />were actually 4% over the total low bids, not under. <br />The nextICommission meeting is to be held on August 5, 1977 at 10:00 A.M. <br />9. Motion f <br />carried. <br />ir adjournment was made by Mr. Wiggins, supported by Mr. Robinson and <br />Ckl <br />ell, Executive Director <br />
