Paint swing. Fix huge ruts under swings. Wow, they aze huge (or were huge). Consider a pad for the tabie. FiY the bent table, or replace it if necessary. Kids are apparently moving the table by the basketball hoop and jumping off the end and the table can't take it. Either secure the table away for the hoop, or get a m4re resilient table. Remove the pile of junk accumulating at the southwest end of the park. Could possibly plant one tree in the southwest part of the park. , Consider a narrow foot trail or something like that from Royal Meadows to Tracie Mcbride park. (I give this ' relatively low priority as I think the skate park is more important_ lZeconsider it again neat year, fa.� 2a01.) , Lamotte Park Remove pallets, wire, metal, and junk on east side of the trail just before crossing the creek. Kids have been putting it on the trail at night and it could cause an injury to an unsuspecting runner. � Paint hockey stripes. I Lion's concession stand could go at the end of the trail. A light, sti1l at Rich DeFoe's needs to be put in the lighted field. Remove or install the light laying on the ground just west of the trail by the hockey rink. There's also a pole and some other things there. The roof need replacing on the hockey stand_ The temporary road may not become a traii. It would dump people into the middle ofnowhere on Centerville Road and another option may be possible. If fihe church property is acquired, it would naturally extend the park boundaries. With that, a trail could go from the parking lot east and slightly north to match the street slighfly north of the temporary road. No acrion should be taken until the outcome of that land is known. A structure might go nicely at the east center of the park, just south of the temporary road. Eagle Pass Deternune where boundary of park is on the north right by the new home and also to the northwest — is that large field part of the park? The sport pad conversion to a tennis court may need some rethinking. The tennis court may not fit too well. ' Tlie trail from the park west has no base. It is becoming an asphalt patchwork quilt. It will have to be redone, but it should really be redone by the original developer. Do we have any leverage there? (Target 2001-2004.) Trees may need to be thinned. They may be too big to transplant. Satellite to go by the trail exit to the north behind trees. City Ha11 This is the obvious p�ace for the skate/bike/scoater park. The most important feature is that it is centrally located for the kids and youth of the city. Lamotte park, I feel, would be too far away and supervision is problematic. With the skate park at City Hail, someone is almost always available neazby. In addition, the power Iines n�nnin north/south provide an almost ideal access to the park from the northern and southern parts of the city. The southern route would have to be investigated. The northem route would take a trail to Main St where a pedestrian walkway could be built with stop iights perhaps so l�ds and youth could cross safely. On the north side of Main St. it may be possible to construct a trail in the block across the street and 2 blocks west (a new strip mall and the rebuild the "trail" at the earisting strip mall. A trail on the north side of Main St need to be designed by an engineer with a long term view in mind. The short term inferior trai� at the existing strip ma11 is an exainple of what should NOT be done. Longer Term Related Sr Paul Water Property , A plan should be formulated soon about acquiring this property. Availability and presumably price are known and plans should be possible that won't let this property slip away. Make preliminary inquiries as to the process � needed to be foliowed (Target Mar, 2001.) � i
