The first formal Master plan meeting for Clark Park and pool was held on Saturday Feb 23. A great many people from the community showed up to voice their ideas for the future of Clark Park and Pool.
A total of 6 concept idea plans were created by members of the community and the design firm who will be handling the master plan design.
Great, creative ideas and concepts were brought forward and were presented to the group. We are all pretty much on the same page, that our number 1 pirority is the pool and Rec area. Other ideas were builing burms along the little leauge field, a path to gain access to the the ramadas, shade over the playground and pool area, basketball courts, open space, safety, dog areas, soccer area, skate area, solar energy and alternative methods for water filtration.
From these 6 conecpts, the design team will make 3 concepts and we will go over them at the next community meeting (time and date to be determined).
The next important item is to ensure the funding for the changes and renovations wanted in the park and pool. You can do this by attending the Special Capital improvement project (CIP) meeting on Thursday March 20, 2008 at city council chambers, 31 East 5th Street, Garden level starting at 5:00 pm.
Thank you for taking the time to plan for the future of our community!
