Bechtold AGEND�� Director of Parks & Recreation ATTACHMENTSs Copy of Informational Brochure APPR D Y• � 1'' At the last city council meeting authorization was give�f for me to attend the national seminar on parks maintenance. although this was a highly educational and motivational seminar last season, and would have proven to be again this season, the timing has changed on the job where I feel it inappropriate far me to attend a seminar at this time. The attendance at a seminar in Duluth on October 4th and 5th and the ground work on the Comprehensive Park Plan are two major reasons for requesting this change. _ _ _ _ _ . _ - _ - - __ _ _ _ - _ _ Instead of the parks and grounds management seminar listed I am requesting that authorization be given to attend a national seminar being conducted by the National Recreation and Parks Association referred to as the "National Executive Development School" .
