Mark Ashdown, committee member, noted that they are just <br />asking for the Board's support; although, obviously they would <br />like the Board to match the City's contribution of $25,000. The <br />architect will be here on April 5th and will be actually design- <br />ing the playground for that location, after which they will know <br />the exact cost. Right now they are looking at a minimum budget <br />of $75,000. Mr. Ashdown advised that the Dodgers also have been <br />very helpful. <br />Chairman Eggert commented that she worked on the planning <br />for the Sebastian creative playground, and she believed they <br />raised about $50,000 for that from private sources. She asked if <br />we have to reinvent the wheel in designing this playground or <br />have we learned from the creation of the one in Sebastian. <br />Mr. Ashdown explained that this will be a larger playground <br />and they expect the budget to be slightly higher, depending, of <br />course, on donations. He felt it is important that this will be <br />built in the same fashion as the one in Sebastian with the whole <br />community participating in the building. <br />Commissioner Bird believed we have some unallocated capital <br />funds in our Parks & Recreation budget, and possibly the Parks & <br />Recreation Committee would recommend some funds for this purpose. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bird, the Board unanimously agreed <br />to endorse the concept of the proposed playground. <br />1990 ROAD RESURFACING PROGRAM <br />The Board reviewed memo from the Public Works Director: <br />,MAR 13 NO 49 no��- <br />
