The front area of Lincoln Park has space for options of a lion on rocks or an elephant. 6-A Public Comments - none 6-A Commissioner Comments Commissioner Navarro: Excited about the new playground and that the kids had input. Commissioner Nguyen: Appreciates the thoughtfulness of getting and feedback from the public especially from the young kids. Also appreciates that new trees will be part of the plan. Vice Chair Robbins: Happy that the natural trees will be kept to provide shade. Curious if there could be a partial pour of ADA type surface without disturbing the trees. Director Wooldridge: The wood chips migrate constantly and when it gets walked on it degrades the poured in place surface which loses the integrity of the poured in place surface. Chair Alexander: Votes to have the lion on the two rocks in honor of the Lincoln Lions. Will there be benches around the playground? Director Wooldridge: Yes, the goal is for more benches and one picnic table. 6-A Motion Commissioner Navarro motioned to approve the Lincoln Park playground design as presented including the lion on the rocks for the circular seating area.
