All members were present as well as Director Noble and Tom Fattlar from the Recreation Department. All equipment listed on Exhibit A was discussed with Director Noble and there was no objection to the sale of all equipment with the exception of a couple of pieces that were discussed specifically in conjunction with the proposal submitted to council by Munn's Ford Tractor Agency.

In the absence of Chairman McKay, Councilman Wilamosky gave the following Streets and Drainage Committee report: 1) Committee discussed Porter Road re- construction and Ordinance No. 87-120, on first reading this evening, reflects their recommendation to move ahead and authorize Michael Benza and Associates to perform preliminary engineering drawings for this project. The ordinance was discussed in caucus this evening and the administration included in one section of Ordinance No. 87-120 that $12,500 would be expended from Capital Improvement Funds for this preliminary engineering because it has already been earmarked for this purpose. While there is tremendous support for this project, Mr. Wilamosky warned that the reconstruction may not occur for some time; does not want the residents on Porter Road to have any false hopes that this will be done immediately.
