CHRISTINA HUDDLESTON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
7:00 PM
On October 25, 1990 at 7:00 PM, the third public information
.meeting was held concerning the update ofthe system plan. At
this meeting several Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee
members were present, Mayor Duane Zaun was present, and seven
.residents were present. The identical presentation was given to
the group, and upon its completion, there was a lengthy
discussion concerning the needs surrounding the High Pointe
Crossings development..
Three. residents representing the High Pointe Crossings
development expressed very strongly their desire for parka
facilities in that immediate area. Once again, staff outlined
.all the existing facilities within close proximity to this
particular development. The upgrade of County Road 46 was`
discussed, as were several other potential ideas including a
possible future park to service those needs. I must emphasize
that these residents were very concerned about the lack of
accesses to public parks or trails and emphatically expressed
their disappointment. It was very evident-that this. group will
continue to express their :opinions either at other meetings or
through letters and possibly a petition.
• Staff attempted to mediate their concerns and explained. the
process of the system plan update concerning its timetable and
ffinal recommendations forthcoming to the city council.
There were no other comments. of any degree from the remaining
citizens. The meeting was productive and the residents left
better informed but determined to continue their efforts to
secure park property to service the High Pointe Crossings
development.
