Regular Council Meeting Minutes <br />5-18-09 <br />Page 13 <br />. Motion to authorize expenditure in an amount not to exceed $10,000.00 for the 2009 <br />Appreciation Dinner. <br />Mrs. Mills, seconded by Dr. Parker, made a motion to authorize expenditure in an amount not to <br />exceed $10,000.00 for the 2009 Appreciation Dinner. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked if there was any discussion. <br />Mrs. Mills reported that the Committee has met. We formulated the plans. Ms. Wolgamuth went <br />out and got prices on the food, etc. The p.o. and memorandum that she sent around is very self- <br />explanatory. The Mayor was gracious enough to say we can do this again. What happened, <br />people thought maybe they were left off the list this year because we had many people saying, <br />what happened? Where's the Appreciation Dinner? Mrs. Mills thinks this is a good thing. <br />Mayor Rinker stated for everyone's benefit, the plan is really kind of a novel one, to have an <br />outdoor luau and talce advantage of celebrating 10 years at the green, clean Parkview Pool. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, 10 years? <br />Mayor Rinker replied, July 3, 1999, a date forever etched in stone. <br />Mayor Rinker continued, in all candor, we realized the date had gotten away from us. We were <br />looking for ways, candidly we have all been more conscious of some of the expenditures, Mayor <br />Rinker's understanding is this $10,000.00 really is a ceiling. We anticipate spending significantly <br />less than that. The memo covered all that ground, but overall, it's a good way to recognize all of <br />our volunteers and have a good time and do it at a fraction of the cost that we spent before. We <br />think if this works, we will probably do this in the future. It's a nice change of pace. <br />Mr. Thomas asked what the date is on that again. <br />Mrs. Mills replied, July 31St at 7:00 p.m. <br />Dr. Parker asked if we had a rain date. <br />Mrs. Mills replied we have the Community Room reserved in case it rains. <br />Mrs. Mills added, we will be serving approximately 185 guests. That's a good price for what we <br />got. <br />Roll Call: AYES: Mr. Buckholtz, Mrs. Cinco, <br />Mrs. Mills, Mr. Marrie, <br />Dr. Parker Motion Carried <br />NAYS: None Expenditure Authorized <br />ABSTAIN: Mr. Marquardt
