BASS PARK COMMITTEE
BANGOR CITY HALL
APRIL 11, 1990
A special meeting of the Bass Park Committee was called to order
by Chairman Sosnaud at 4 : 50 PM.
Present were: Jeff Sosnaud, Pat Blanchette, Richard Stone, Gerry
Baldacci , Jane Saxl , Ed Barrett, Dale Theriault and
Owen Butler.
1. Stable Fees
Staff was requested to bring to the meeting their recommendations
� regarding future stall rental fees . Mr . Theriault passed out
information projecting income for the 1990-91 off-season stall
rentals .
At $9 . 00 per week per stall ( including rent from hay and tack stalls ) ,
based upon an estimated 144 stalls , income would total $46 , 656 .
At $10 . 00 per stall , projected income would total $51 , 840 for the
36-week period.
If $5 . 00 per week per horse were charged during the racing season,
a projected $22 , 800 would be received based upon an average of 380
stalls . Since historically stall rents are not charged during the
racing season at most tracks and Bangor has already mailed out stall
applications for this season, staff recommended that these rates
not be put into place until the 1991 racing season.
The committee decided not to set stall rates for the 1990-91 winter
season until they have more information. Staff is to come up with
all associated costs including utilities, repairs , administration
and all other expenses which should be allocated to barns .
The committee did vote unanimously ( Sosnaud, Stone and Blanchette )
to put the $5 . 00 racinq season fee into effect for this racing
season. A notice should be mailed as soon as possible to all stall
applicants and should be posted in the barns. The committee
• requested that Mr. Sosnaud be shown the notice before this action.
