<br />A public hearing was held at this time on the resolution. Mr. James Seitz, Superintendent of
<br />Parks, indicated that through this grant the park department could have a maintenance scheduling
<br />program arranged. He indicated that the consulting firm was highly skilled and qualified, and
<br />they would compile the data necessary and hopefully some day the park department could work with
<br />less men in the maintenance program. He indicated that Congress had appropriated $1,000,000
<br />that could be used between 10 cities to improve their park systems.

<br />cost to implement this schedule. Mr. Seitz indicated he did not know what a terminal would cost.
<br />Mr. Evans indicated that as a United States citizen and member of this community, he was offendec
<br />that Congress has seen fit to suggest we should do innovative thinking. He said he did not feel
<br />very content with the fact that the City is involved in this type of activity.
