Disc Golf: Mike received information from Dallas Alley. Mayor would like our thoughts. Equipment consists of large circles or a large net. Play and scoring are similar to golf. Cost of equipment ranges between $15,000 and $20,000, depending on equipment, for professional installation which includes a 25-year warranty. Location would be at Clinton Hills Conservation Park on what used to be the back 9 hole. Horner Park in Lebanon has disc golf equipment in use. Information packet is attached. Motion to approve by Rose, second by David. Motion approved.
Mel Price Park Memorial Trees: Mike received information from Dallas Alley regarding trees and plants to be placed around new fitness trail and exercise area.
