Jan 10 Park Meeting 3:00 PM... WHEN PUBLIC IS AVAILABLE?

GRAND TERRACE Pocket park to be discussed
The public is invited to a community meeting to discuss plans for a new pocket park at Mount Vernon Avenue and De Berry Street.

The meeting is scheduled for 3 p.m. Jan. 10 at City Hall, 22795 Barton Road.

The City Council requested the meeting to give city staff members a chance to discuss the layout and design of the park with neighboring residents. For more information, call the city Community Services Department at (909) 430-2201.

Gramps Recalls: the animated City Council Discussion on the need or desire to include Public Participation in the Layout and design. I don't recall it being limited to Neighboring Residents, it is a PUBLIC Park being paid for with PUBLIC FUNDS and one would assume to be used if there is a USE by the PUBLIC. So those of you who are interested in: Park Development and Use, or PUBLIC USE OF FUNDS, please attend. For those of you who do attend thank you.
