He felt that preliminary <br /> concepts should be available for the next Park Commission <br /> meeting. <br /> Chair Flint asked if this was done independent of the ice arena. <br /> Johnston noted it would be a master plan that would fit all <br /> together, and may be done in phases as needed.

They are <br /> studying the whole area between County Road 6 and Highway 12, and <br /> Willow Drive and Old Crystal Bay Road North. <br /> Kokal asked if the land east of the school has been purchased by <br /> the school . <br /> Johnston noted that the school has choosen to purchase that land <br /> in sections, and to date they have purchased the eastern half. <br /> The area that lends itself best for an atheletic complex would be <br /> the eastern half of the property. <br /> Ilse asked if there were ways to get funding from surrounding <br /> communities that are within the Orono School District. <br /> Gerhardson noted that would be ideal, but difficult to do. <br /> Chair Flint asked that the OBA appear before the Commission in <br /> March regarding Bederwood Park. <br /> Wilson noted that they will obviously want to continue to use <br /> Bederwood Park. <br /> 9 <br />
