GABRIEL JABBOUR, BIG ISLAND PARK <br /> <br />Gabriel Jabbour addressed the City Council regarding the recommendations of the Big Island Park <br />Committee for certain improvements on Big Island. Two of the recommendations of the committee are <br />the installation of rip rap along 200 feet of shoreline where the dock and future additional docks will be <br />located. A bid has been received for $48,230 for the dock. A bid of $13,000 has been received for the <br />rip rap. <br /> <br />Jabbour noted Big Island has also suffered a considerable amount of vandalism this past year, <br />particularly to the restroom structure. A verbal quote of $18,000 has been obtained for the block work <br />on the new restroom and the concrete dock pads. There will be additional costs for supplies and <br />hauling. The hauling costs will be substantially lower if completed in the winter. Jabbour indicated the <br />committee has looked at a number of options for making the new structure as vandal proof as possible. <br /> <br />White noted the costs for these improvements will be taken out of the Park Fund rather than the City’s <br />general fund. <br /> <br />Bremer asked whether the police have suggested any additional type of security. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />PAGE 1 of 12 <br />Item #02 - CC Agenda - 02/25/08 <br />Approval of Council Minutes 2/11/08 [Page 1 of 12]
