Also in- cluded was an apportionment of Sales Tax monies. Mayor Carpenter then recognized Alice Dunlap, City Librarian. Mrs. Dunlap stated that because the Library would not receive any !'federal fluids in 1973 and with the amount in the budget, they would not be able to make any improvements on the steps And sidewalks at the Library.

S then presented Jerry Mower who read the following from Hoyt Blackstock, Vice President of the Tennis C1 Mayor Carpenter We represent a recently formed organization called the "Canyon County Tennis Club ". We have hadv two organizational meetings and have elected a board of directors and officers to run the organization. We have sponsored two invitational tennis mdxers which were well attended. We are currently planning a membership drive by issuing invitations to all adults interested in playing tennis to attend a membership meeting the week of April 9th. We have already de- veloped an invitational list of more than 75 adults (mostly from Caldwell) that are interests& and we are sure there are many more. Because of the growing interest in tennis as a recreational sport for adults and young people we would like you to consider the following requests at your meeting on April 2, 1973. A= RECREATION: Other than golf, tennis is about the only outdoor recreational sport in which one can easily participate in Caldwell. The Canyon County Tennis Club recognizes the need to teach the game of tennis to our young people. This is also one of the long term goals for the club after we have an organized membership. We hope we can be the catalyst to provide the interest, teach and provide in- struction through clinics to the younger tennis players. We do not feel we can take this responsibility until we have a viable, working club composed of adults. We would like to see adult recreational tennis as a continuation of the Adult Recreational Program started during the winter. We would like to request the Youth Recreational Program be changed to that tennis instruction at some other time than evenings so that adults that work can use the city courts at that time. TENNIS COURT RULES: We would certainly like to have the city post a set of permanent rules at the city courts. A set of suggested rules are attached. You will see be reviewing the suggested rules that specific times are reserved for adult play on the courts in many cities. We feel more adults would participate in the sport if court time was available. If rules are posted we would suggest an addition to the ones attached. A statement request- ing that the lights be turned off if you are the last to leave would be very helpful. TENNIS COURT RESERVATIONS: We would like to see a system approved whereby the city courts could be offic reserved for a period of organized play whether it might be for the schools, college or a tennis club. Thank you for your time and consideration. Kathy Jones President of Canyon County Tennis Club Hoyt Blackstock Tice President of Canyon County Tennis Club = 3 After a brief ciscussion on the availability of the courts for adults in the evenings, it was move by Councilman Carter, seconded by Councilman Gamboa, that this be turned over to the Recreation Commi tee , F YYor their study and recaimmendation.

He added that the cros;ing had been made at the Black Canyon Canal, and there was no reason why this project couldn't proceed has Councilman Gamboa stated that it should be determined when the City would be in a position to pro• vide'the sewer service, and then at that time requre the money in escrow, thus eliminating tying up the mone for L long period of time.

As an initial step in this direction we decided that we would like to offer to make available for the purpose of Pray- ing and invocation at the Council Meetings. This would be open to all Ministers of the City that desire to participate regardless of whether or not they are active in the Minis - terial Association. We are desireous that this offer not be considered as group pressure, as this certainly is not our intention in the least. If for some reason the Council does not deem this to be a wise course of action be assured that we will not consider the Council to be anti -Church or anti - religion. As Ministers of the Community we want to pledge our support of the Coun- cil and assure you that we stand ready to be of assistance in anyway we can to make our Community a better place in which to live. Thank you so much for your consideration. Sincerely, /s/ Rev. Marshall Vaughn, President Caldwell Ministerial Association 5V It was moved by Councilman Carter, seconded by Councilman Banks, to write a letter to Rev.

As a consequence of this neglect, most restaurants had fallen far below what is expected of a Grade A estab- lishment. When the district health department was first formed, we were cognizant of this lack of a regular restaurant inspection program and therefore did not officially degrade any restaurants. Actually, at that time, there probably wouldn't have been any Grade A cards issued at all. We have now worked with these establishments eighteen months and feel we have reached a degree of compliance whereby a grading program is possible. The program we have ready to impliment will entail a minimum of four inspections per year. The inspections will be coupled with weekly food handlers lectures, available on a voluntary basis to all restaurant personnel. This will enable keeping a Grade card exhibited in each restau- rant that reflects its current compliance. We believe this program carried out on an impartial basis will aid immeasurably in providing our community with restaurants of quality. If you view this program favorably and would like to see it initiated in your city, we would appreciate a letter from you giving us your support. very truly yours, Bill Wood, Environmentalist and Ida} tree He a $7,C Meet the Tran P.S.
