Chairman Hollom indicated the Special Meetin9 of the Park Board was
established at the last regular meetin9 to conduct their annual tour
of the parks. In addition, there was a request from the Plannin9 and
Zonin9 Commission that the Park Board consider what they would like
as faf as a Park deduction from the Independent School District #13
as part of the replattin9 process for the Columbia Junior High area.
The Public Works Director explained the platting procedure and the
requirements to dedicate park land or money in lieu of land. He
presented the proposed plat, and explained the proposal from the
school district.
Considerable debate about the number of parks, and some discussion
about Wargo Park pursued. It was mentioned that there would probably
be a demand created on the parks by students and there are no tax
dollars to help support that use.

recommend money in lieu of land, based on the fact that the City has
adequate park land at the present time and that the funds be used for
improvements in other parks. Roil Call: All ayes.
