It seem that everyone else can come down here and get what they want done, except us. I am presenting you with the attached list of the things that needs to be done at the Park and I am going to request that this be and agenda item at the first meeting in October of 1991. We are not concerned about the budget and the cost, what we would like to hear is when the job will be completed. Do not go by what the attached list says -- as it is only an "estimate," what we are concerned about is when the job will be done and we need you to tell us.
