In the ensuing discussion, Commissioner Bird asked if the park is the only thing left on the east of A -1-A, and it was noted there are also the two beach accesses; the F.I.T. property; and a piece just north of the park abutting the residential area, Commissioner Bird asked if we can clarify a bit more just what the status of the park will be with the annexation.
