Mayor Samson asked about the timing of planting trees, <br /> installing a sidewalk, fence, and water source. There was discussion about the appropriate <br /> starting point in the design elements of the passive park. Mayor Samson explained that <br /> the grant funds require that the park be a passive park, and that the County was unwilling <br /> to allow the placement of children's recreational equipment. <br /> There was discussion about whether the Citizens Planning Advisory Committee should <br /> be asked to review the use of the parks, and if there would be restrictions such as, no dogs, <br /> picnicking, ball playing. <br /> Vice Mayor Turetsky moved and Commissioner Morrow seconded a motion to approve <br /> the written proposal, [spending S200,0001.
