Ea.stcoind Drive, representing the Senior Citizens group, asked
the Council if they could have an acoustical the ceiling in-
stalled in the Senior Citizens Building rather than the a.ir con-
ditioner for which the Council had appropriated funds in the
proposed 1967-68 budget. They stated that when they have large
groups in this building the a.cousi=ics are very poor, and they
would prefer having this situation remedied rather than having
the building a.ir conditioned. They also stated they needed a.
new water cooler more than an a,ir conditioner.
' Mayor Lewis asked the Village Manager to check the cost of
having this ceiling installed and also the cost of a. new
water cooler, and if the total cost of these two items did not
exceed the amount appropriated in the budget for the a.ir con-
ditioner, Council agreed to proceed on this basis.
