GARDEN CITY, Utah. January 14, 2016. Chuck Stocking, council member, noted that there have been some problems with the pool boiler.  He will get that taken care of soon.  Swimming lessons are going well.  About $92 has been spent for different items used for water aerobics.   He also noted that all of the library computers are working.

Darrin Pugmire, council member, reported that he will be meeting with the County Commissioners this coming week to work out who will be doing what concerning the gun range.  The Commissioners approved the building of the gun range at their last meeting. 

Pugmire also asked about the road from first west that was to connect to 3^rd West.  The council members didn’t know, so Pugmire indicated he would look into this matter.

Pat Argyle, council member, reported that half of the money for the fireworks for Raspberry Days was paid.  The balance will be paid after that activity is completed.

She noted that grant money for the flag pole has been received.  She will move forward on getting that taken care of.  She reported that the Raspberry Days brochure will have a a different look this coming year.  She asked if the entertainment for Raspberry Days had to be let out to bid.  The Council told her to get the best she could with the budget that is available, and that it didn’t need to go out to bid.

Mayor Spuhler has been working on marketing Garden City—not just Bear Lake but Garden City itself.  He has made a 60-second video.  He showed it to the Council, and they liked what he has done.  He is going to work with some individuals from USU and see what the cost will be to move forward with marketing Garden City.
