Show Pool “Centerfield is growing by leaps and bounds and will continue to do so because we have a tremendous amount of room” commented Recorder Hansen “It may be that we will get to putting into and using the pool just as much as Gunnison does If we commit to doing it now as we’re growing then it’ll be in place” Mayor Buchanan said once the loan is paid off the communities will keep percent of tax revenues collected (minus pool maintenance costs) for other projects Brian Jensen said “We just hate to see the chance pass us because they’ve pretty much committed to grant us a half a million dollars We hate to start over” Council Member Bartley Jensen asked what sort of feedback town hall received from the radio advertisement asking people to call in their opinions Recorder Hansen reported that there was slightly more for than against Mayor Lund and Council Member Von Olsen polled people while doing scout collections Lund found sixty percent in favor and Olsen found none in favor In general families with children were for the tax and the pool older people were against Camille Hone told the council she wants the pool located more centrally “That ball park at the high school is loaded all summer long How many towns after the kids are through playing ball wouldn’t take them to the pool for a couple of hours?” She mentioned the things surrounding the high school that are already an attraction “There’s a dairy queen across the street there’s green lawns there’s ball fields there’s going to be a track now there’s a gym” She concluded “Living on the highway watch these kids ride their bikes by at three or four in the afternoon they’re like dead dogs If was a kid wouldn’t ride my bike that far” The council discussed land near the high school and possible locations for the pool The next meeting with Recorder the CIB is in December Hansen said “It sounds to me like in a month’s time some work has to be from Page 1) Jensen answered “It’s based on what Beaver has As a valley we are comparable in population We figured the use would be about the same as them Their M&O right now is around $40000” Currently Gunnison pays around $ 5000 a year to keep its 60 year old pool running inserted Mayor Buchanan Buchanan reported what the CIB Board told the pool committee “They are willing to actually outright grant a fourth of it” he said The board wants the community to provide another fourth of the cost Gunnison has $300000 from donations the worth of the land where the pool sits now and the savings on labor if Gunnison employees work on site preparation or other preliminary work Approximately one million would be borrowed at percent interest to complete the project $145000 is the estimated annual income if all valley communities adopt the utility tax The pool committee estimated $63000 a year would go to pay off the loan Mayor Lund told the Gunnison that the Centerfield representatives Council originally wanted to see the pool placed near the high school we felt if it was put “Eventually around there it could be worked into the curriculum” he said Centerfield’s population has creased by almost 100 (24 new homes) in the last year Lund said One argument to keep the pool in the Gunnison Park has been because of who the number of swim while visiting the park (14 percent according to the survey taken in July) Lund argued that the new pool will be a pool and the park is only open three months Me said “We’re actually going to be drawing from our communities more during the Our concern as a council is putting it so far away makes it tough for our kids to get there We done” felt we’d see more usage from our She asked the council “If we’re community if it were closer” the ace in the hole and we’re going “The only problem is they are to grow more than Gunnison’s going giving us $50000 credit for the land” to grow what are we willing to do to said Mayor Buchanan The pool with force them to bring that pool down parking lot will

Member Von Olsen changed the subKathy Robertson said “1 read in ject “We’ve got a lot of elderly the paper that the CIB is against a people on a fixed income We just shot the water up a year ago and the utility tax” Mayor Buchanan anIt’s what you call garbage keeps going up all the time swered “No yourselves is what it boils down to these people are getting nailed” He There’s no problem and Ken spoke against the utility tax “I know Chamberlain’s addressed that with we need a new pool just would like them” He added “The CIB likes to to see it come around another way” see communities go together to do Bartley Jensen said “I really hate things anymore so it involves and to see it throw another tax on people benefits more than one community” know they’re getting taxed to death The point was made that without but think a lot of the elderly people Centerfield’s would use it” help Gunnison probably can’t generate the revenue to get “Maybe there’s something we a new pool Recorder

council except for Olsen maintain it We either have to band voted to approve the six percent tax together as communities and do this if Gunnison agreed to move the pool or just decide we don’t want
