Dsicussion was held on playground equipment seen at various parks and
playgrounds. Lorain Owens was to contact someone at the Montessori School
on Waukomis Drive to see where they purchased their equipment.
It was decided we need to have someone draw up a plan for the park areas so
we would have some guidelines to follow.
Recommendations to the counsel:
1. That they .try to find person that owns the basement foundation so we
might buy that property.
