Curb and gutter is not being proposed given the need <br />to maintain existing drainage conditions, but there are parking barriers in <br />place. Staff also looked at the improvement of the Pioneer Park lot on the <br />west side of the park. Various options were considered given the <br />Engineer's estimate for this improvement was in the area of $180,000. <br />Given the cost and various challenges such as soil conditions, it is <br />proposed that the Pioneer Park lot be skin- coated in 2012 utilizing the <br />Public Works staff. It is also proposed that the Pioneer Park parking lot be <br />posted prohibiting garbage trucks and buses from parking in this lot. <br />5 <br />
