The Committee agreed that the two a~eas identified as the maln target
areas are 1) the Eastern Entry T~iangle Pa~k and, 2) Airport Pa~k.
For the remainder of this year, fill could be placed on the Airport
Park at any time in preparation for the first steps in development
which are to be decided upon later. The Public Works Director has
indicated that there are various projects going on within the City
where fill could be obtained.
The EETP, however, will ~equire identification, location, and possible
relocation of utility lines before any further consideration can be
taken. The Committee suggests that the most economically feasible
steps in obtaining this goal may be to request Public Wo~ks send out a
letter to all utility companies requesting or requiring them to submit
a plat or plan (however, the individual utility handle~ location of
their lines) showing the location of their lines. By this method, an

members when ~hey can attend, the Committee has decided to ~eques~ a
membership of 10. While no~ all 10 would be attending the meeting at
the same time, this gives the Committee a working membership at all
times even though of varying numbers. The ~equest will be passed on
to Mayor Wagone~ through Councilwoman Bailie and ~he secretary.
The Committee asked the media (Polly C~awfo~d) be contacted to ~equest

activities and asked that Mr. Sime~oth be p~esent at the next meeting
