Monica Travis (7335 Brian Drive) was in agreement with Ms. Lien. Adding, there are 20 <br /> aeres north of Acorn Creek that are being developed - this will bring more kids. Monica <br /> felt this park should be designed for kids and adults to use. Monica questioned if there <br /> would be additional traf�ic and where parking would be. Adding, there is a proposed trail <br /> and perhaps parking could be at a different location. She questioned if grant funds could <br /> be used to secure a parking lot. <br /> Dale Larson thought parking was planned all along at the Acorn Creek Park There are <br /> currently three (3 ) parking spaces at Acorn Creek Park. <br /> Loren Abrahamson (I 868 Revoir Street) added that his idea of a neighborhood park is <br /> defined as a park for neighborhood use - consisting of some adult fixtures and ptay <br /> equipment for children. <br /> Dan NElson (1$28 Revoir Street) questioned iffhere would be another park north of <br /> Acorn Creek Park, and the amenities that will offer. <br /> Michael Navin menfioned �he City is to keep in mind that with the new developments ��� <br /> coming into town, the police department wishes to have access to the parks. <br /> Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) questioned if the City will have leverage to get access to I <br /> the parks in the future. ' <br /> Michael Navin stated that this is the perfect opportunity for citizen involvement in the <br /> future. Adding that new developments have to �o before City Council. The City Council <br /> takes into consideration what is best for the City, i.e.: land for parks or money. At this ���� <br /> time, it is premature to assume what the City will get - land or money - when the next � <br /> development comes to town. <br /> Dale Larson felt, in loaking through the information submitted by the Ne�ighborhood <br /> Network Committee, that what the neighborhood wants would also be suitable for adults. <br /> Nlichael Navin questioned the survey taken by the Neighborhood Network Committee. <br /> Specifically, asking which of the items on the survey are mandatory? Is a basketball eourt <br /> something the residents really want to see? Adding, bouncing balls are very loud, and is <br /> this someThing that fits into what the C�ty �vants? <br /> Lori Dorn (1836 Revoir Street) acided that basketball courts may bring more adults into <br /> the park area. <br /> Tom Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stated the most difficult thing for the Neighborhood <br /> Network Committee is not knowina how much money the City has to work with as far as <br /> developing parks. <br /> 3 <br />
