Ilkof MEMORANDUM
lk RiverTO: Park and Recreation Commission
FROM: Stephen Wensman, Planner
DATE: July 14, 1999
SUBJECT: Lion's Park Improvements
Overview
As part of the Park of the Month discussion for Lions Park, it was determined
that there was interest by the City and the Lions for a ballfield and an
additional play structure in Lions Park. Also from the discussion, the Lions
indicated that they were interested in making the improvements to the park
on a timeline somewhat shorter than that of the City. The Park and
Recreation Commission asked staff to meet with the Lions to determine the
desired locations for the site amenities and their fit with the concept plan.
• Staff met with Harold Gramsted of the Lions to discuss the desired locations
of the proposed amenities. The ballfield location discussed is labeled
"Ballfield A" on the concept plan. The play structure location is indicated by
an asterisk on the concept plan (See attached concept plan). Staff believes
the proposal conforms to the concept plan for Lions park.
