Opposing:
John McCreedy: Attorney for George and Pauline Dillard, opposes
the location of the maintenance shop and practice area (driving
range). There will be a negative impact on the property. The
Dillards goal is to work out some form of a compromise with the
developer. He wants the Council to require conditions to insure
the Dillards concerns are addressed. The conditions are, DEQ, Corp
of Eng, Etc. permits, and an opportunity to get together, study of
impacts of the maintenance shop, and an opportunity to resolve the
differences, then, put an agreement together in writing.

probability of flood levels since 1954. In the 1972 geological
study the rivers ability to carry water was reduced by 20%, that
was more than 2 decades ago. FEMA will restudy in 1996.
Issues addressed by the public: Joplin Ln. is an old established
name, suggest the use of the name "Joplin Moors" for the golf
course. The public remembers a 1943 flood and they believe that
the growth in the river is causing flooding not development. A
request for sewer stubs was heard.

PARKS REPORT TAL TRAUTMAN, Eagle parks maintenance dept: The
playground equipment has been purchased and the ground at the parks
prepared. There will be a fill of 8 inches of sand. There is a
problem with both the parks that the groundis not level. The
results is that the pits are made deep. Now it needs to be decided
when to line the pits because of the rain we are having now, and
how soon we can install the equipment. The issue is what to line
the pits with, concrete or railroad ties. Tal addressed these
issues to the Council and suggested concrete. A bid was submitted
