An <br />article was published in the October 2000 City newsletter seeking public input for a name for the <br />new park. We received 14 different name suggestions, which the Commission narrowed down to <br />four. These four names were then presented to the public at the Commission meeting on <br />February 1, 2001 for comments. Seven residents were present at that meeting and all seven were <br />in favor of the name "Rondeau Park." The Commission then made a motion to recommend that <br />name as the new name for the park on Jackson Street. <br />I feel the Commission created a very fair policy for deciding on a name for the new park and 1 <br />support their recommendation. <br />cc: Parks & Recreation Commission <br />\ \CLCS RV O 1 \ HOME \KrisP`CORRIESP \Kris' 2001 \Jackson St Park.doc <br />Page 1 <br />
