people to use while playing miniature golf. The miniature golf course closed many years

table were removed for safety reasons and the estimated annual cost for repair and upkeep
is between $800 to $1,400; and,
WHEREAS, there is no known or anticipated municipal use for the deteriorating
structure and for safety reasons should be removed from City property; and,
WHEREAS, Jerry Kyle has requested the City to allow him to remove the wood
gazebo structure to be rebuilt on their home property; and,
WHEREAS, it is deemed appropriate that this structure be declared dilapidated and
surplus property and Mr. Kyle be allowed to remove this structure from the park property
for the value of the cost of dismantling the structure and removing the structure in its
