He <br />confirmed that we will not know how much fund raising is needed until conceptual <br />designs have been completed for this project. Maddux Park renovation is not <br />scheduled until FY2000-2001. Commissioner Slusser reported he met with each of <br />the participants and he advised them they should continue to pursue the same type <br />of fund raising efforts they have been doing. He advised them that after the studies <br />are completed, a plan of action could be developed with the assistance of staff and <br />the Commission and then go to City Council. Manager Gibbons noted that Stacy <br />Stunes went to City Council to advise them of their fundraising efforts. As a result, <br />Mayor Hartnett requested a full report from staff and Manager Gibbons is currently <br />working on the report for Council.
