feedback:
·
When discussing opportunities for Pulman Park
please talk to Bruce Pulman as he may have contacts given his past
contracting experience.
·
If Southern Park carpark were to be developed the
board expressed concern that it would become a permanent parking area for
nearby houses and then wouldn’t be available for sports users.
·
Drury Sports Complex –There is an
existing concept plan for Drury Sports Complex. Runciman Tennis courts
are nearing end of life. Explore the opportunity for a jointly funded project
with the Franklin Local Board to develop this park.
·
Local Board

reported it.
