Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard. Murphy stated it bothers him to accept additional liabilities through our $25,000 deductible for something already in place and county owned. Mollenhoff respectfully responded that the city already has enormous liability in streets alone. Mollenhoff is concerned with addressing the need to have a place for kids to play. Jordan concurred with Mollenhoff and feels the city has a responsibility to provide children with places to play. Collier agreed that a playground is well needed but the equipment needs to be replaced or repaired. He asked how much money will be needed to get the right equipment. Krizek asked if there will be fencing and supervision for the lot. Getty said he felt that the county has chosen the city as the place to dump another item they don't want. He feels the county should look at it again with the organizations that are volunteering time and money.
