NEW BUSINESS:
Prairie Advisory Committee Report: Eric discussed it
at length in the last newsletter, so be sure to read the newsletter from
cover-to-cover. He stated that UNIMIN security is on the lookout for
horseriders and all-terrain vehicles. They did catch a guy on a
4-wheeler and charged him with trespassing. It has been difficult to
catch whomever has been wrecking the wall.
Mowing the Prairie: Jean reported John Rogers can't
mow the prairie anymore due to tennis elbow, so SKP needs a new mower.
Bob talked with a patron at the Prairie who suggested Windy Block from
St. Peter.
Meeting with UNIMIN: On May 20th Bob, Eric and Mark
met with UNIMIN to discuss buying land. UNIMIN does not want to modify
the agreement they have with SKP. SKP needs to come up with a written
proposal to the Kasota Council to accomplish this.
ADJOURNMENT: Since Cleo had to leave for a 4:30 a.m.
wake-up, Joyce moved to adjourn and find a ride home and was seconded
by Jim. The motion carried.
