City Manager Owens reported that a telecommunications settlement for a class action lawsuit, of which we are a member, has been approved with TracFone Wireless, Inc. The City will receive a small settlement of $15,483 and no action is required of the Board to receive this settlement. Staff is proposing that $774 of the settlement be assigned to the St. Louis County Municipal League for revenues expended in its legislative and settlement efforts relating to this lawsuit and to fund future services performed on behalf of the League’s member municipalities.

An ice trail is not currently in the design. In response to Alderman Boulton’s question, Patty DeForrest stated that she is not sure if a new rink would extend the season (Thanksgiving Holiday through the end of February), but rather make it more dependable. Anticipation is to have another use for the facility from April through October (i.e. events, music, movies, practice fields, etc.)
Alderman Berger commented that he sees no value in extending the cost cycle for this facility. We have an ice rink, a value to the community, and we also have one of the greatest swimming pools of all time but for nine months out of the year it stands vacant. He is perfectly comfortable with the ice skating rink and nothing more because the value is ice skating. In response to Alderman Garnholz’s comment, Alderman Berger stated that it was a concept in order to sell the bond issue which is his point of view. He is not in favor of expending the expense operations of the ice skating rink under the “guys that were going to have a practice field.”
Alderman Lintz asked if this has anything to do with the contract before the Board tonight. Alderman Boulton stated that she feels it has to do with everything and appreciates what Alderman Berger had to say. She feels almost the opposite and cannot imagine spending this kind of money on just an ice skating rink.
