r SEP ? 1983 <br />with provisions that it be used for park and recreational <br />purposes. The two acre property which is on 39th St. east of <br />U.S.I. was donated to the County in the name of Hosie_Schuman. <br />Mrs. Jackson was not present, but Mr. Jackson confirmed that <br />the Chairman had outlined her plans correctly. <br />Public Works Director Davis reported on the costs, both <br />direct and indirect and stated that landfill fees alone would be <br />approximately $8,000. Mr. Davis estimated that all the costs <br />involved would total about $20,000, but noted they have now <br />determined that the cleared material can be burned on the site <br />which would reduce the landfill fees substantially. <br />Chairman Bird noted that Mr. Davis has indicated if he were <br />given the latitude of clearing this site as the time and <br />equipment is available, it could be worked into the schedule of <br />the Road & Bridge Department. He informed the Board that this <br />property is being used partially used as a neighborhood dump, and <br />he believed we have some obligation to at least underbrush it, if <br />not completely clear it. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Wodtke, to author- <br />ize the Public Works Director to work clearing <br />the above property into his department's <br />schedule and reduce landfill fees, etc., as <br />much as possible. <br />Commissioner Wodtke questioned a cost of $20,000, and Mr. <br />Davis explained that represents a full scale cost estimate, which <br />would include rental of equipment, landfill fees, etc. He noted <br />these two acres are heavily vegetated; we do not, however, have <br />to rent the equipment and that is the majority of the cost. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />101 <br />
