Banks council approves Green-
ville Park Management agreement
From page 11
ect list.
Council unanimously ap-
proved a revised Greenville
Park Management Agreement
with Arbor Village Homeowners
Association, and authorized
the Mayor to sign on behalf of
the City of Banks. Greenville
City Park was donated to the
City of Banks when the Arbor
Village Subdivision was plat-
ted, with the proviso that the
Arbor Village Home Owners
Association (AVHOA) would
maintain and operate the park
under the Park Management
Agreement. On January 10,
2005, the original Park Man-
agement Agreement was su-
perseded by an additional
agreement. Through mediation
between the city and the
AVHOA an addendum to the
Park Management Agreement
has been drafted providing de-
tailed procedures for the opera-
tion and maintenance of
Greenville City Park.
Council fails to pass Res. 12-12

lar vehicle traffic on a section of
road that is not wide enough for
a two-lane road.
Resolution 12-12, offering
the city’s support of the Human
Health - Forest Health Initiative
being implemented by the Pin-
chot Institute, was considered
by council but failed to gain a
quorum when Councilor Bruce
McNair voted against the reso-
lution.
In other business, council:
• gave consensus for the
mayor to appoint Janelle Ced-
ergreen to the Library Board.
The next regular city council
meeting will be held on May 7,
starting at 7:00 p.m. at city hall.

thousands of dollars of his own
money to his campaign. This,
of course, is not illegal but I fail
to understand why out of town
investors and Mr. Fisher would
make this investment.
I also found that Tony Hyde
bought himself over $600 worth
of new tires and a computer
from his campaign funds, mon-
ey in part contributed by a real
estate broker in California, a
business entity from Washing-
ton, D.C., and CalPortland, “a
major building materials and
construction solutions pro-
vider”. Perhaps he is consider-
ing higher aspirations in Salem,
Washington D.C. or Orlando.
We need open, honest and
transparent government. We
need commissioners whose
loyalty lies with their con-
stituents and not with their per-
sonal agenda. It is most defi-
nitely time for a change. I
strongly urge you to vote for
Brady Preheim for position 1
and Tammy Maygra for position
3.
It is time for a change.
