Councilman Eggert advised that prior to his becoming

new Municipal Building, and that it didn't take long to realize
that the need existed, but the actual accomplishment
seemed so far in the then distant future. Mr. Eggert stated it
continues to be talked about and unless something is done, it
will still be a matter for discussion; .that various plans have
been considered with nothing being finalized. He further
stated the Land, Buildings and Parks Committee had met with the
Finance Committee to discusss this matter, and it was the feeling
of the Committees that the time for action is NOW. As Chairman
LAND BLDG. & of the Land, Buildings and Parks Committee, Councilman Eggert
