During the 5:15-p.m. session, the Board will receive a presentation by DNR Fisheries Biologist Brian Hayes with regard to the Schildberg Recreation Area (SRA) lake #1 fishery development.

During their meeting last month, the Board agreed to draw up an ordinance banning tobacco use in covered picnic shelters, the playground, Skate Park and all courts including the Tennis and basketball courts. The ordinance was set to be sent to the City Attorney for review.

Replacement glass for the the kiosk, which was damaged by vandals, is being donated by Atlantic Glass Co. owners Jericho Schmidt and Terry Keegan. It was installed earlier this month.
