DISCUSSION CONCERNING PARKING PROBLEMS AT KENNEDY PARK. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mayor Clark: Number 13. Vice Mayor Plummer: Mr. Mayor, my office and probably the rest of us received a lot of complaints in reference to holes being put in Kennedy Park. The complaints were 'from the neighbors who were across the street who were concerned that suddenly, no parking being provided, or not as much parking or known parking, that their yards were totally flooded with automobiles. I think that we need to go back down, we need to reconfigure, we need to consult with the people who are directly affected. The people who made recommendations, from what I was told, actually do not live in that area. Matter of fact, some of the people have been taking it upon themselves to go forward and take some of the poles out of the ground. So what I'm saying is that we need to reconfigure, go back, meet with those people who are directly affected, the residents there who are having Saturday and Sunday used car lots in their front yard. Mayor Clark: Mr. Ruder, you understand now what we have to do. Vice Mayor Plummer: So that's what I would suggest. Mayor Clark: Thank you. Thank you, Mr.... That will be done right away. Commissioner Gort: We can use the poles some other place. Vice Mayor Plummer: Yeah. 30 July 13, 1995
