Steldt reported on the concert, they asked if we could move the guard rail in front of the bleachers. The stage will be where the pulls start. Removing the texas block and the rails would be near impossible; most are buried in the clay and the posts are buried many feet in the ground. The open posts would add danger. AGENDA ITEMS: 1.
