by the Texas Parks and Wildlife. He stated he would like
council to consider amendments to the plan. Tennis
courts, softball diamonds, basketball facility and play-
ground equipment was discussed. Bridges suggested one
unlighted tennis court, completely separate from the
basketball area. Have one basketball court with several
goals for practice, one non -regulation baseball field
and playground equipment. Lloyd to check about the changes
and costs.
(b) Council was briefed on the HUD tour for Wednesday,

replacement, shrubs, plants, etc., for the City Park.
Landscape Unique will do this for $25.00 per hour. It
was the general consensus of council for Lloyd to proceed.
(d) Lloyd advised Council that the Air Control Board had
called him and were really upset about the burning that
again occurred at the landfill. He stated they said they
had tried to work with the city but that the city had no
honor and that our case would be sent to Austin for
handling. Lloyd stated the city might need to consider
Switzer's equipment and go ahead at the new landfill site.
Mayor Cole was somewhat skeptical of the idea since the
landfill has not been permitted. Mayor Cole stated he
would like to have an attorneys opinion before the city
proceeds to the new landfill. It was agreed.

bishing the Santa Fe Depot requested a workshop on
