The Public Hearing on the Vacation of LaMotte Park was called to order at 8:30 P.M. III This is a continued hearing. Mr. Schumacher reported that he has received a copy of Centervilless five year devel- opment plan for their new park. This 10 acre Park is located approximately 600 feet to the North and East of the existing homes. Mr. Schumacher read the proposed park development plan. Mayor Gourley asked if the residents of that area have had any thoughts since the last meeting and Mr. Glenn Simonson said some of the residents had gotten together and had come to the conclusion that they would like to have the lot left as a green area with perhaps some trees planted there. A petition had been prepared and cir- culated in the neighborhood for signatures. Mr. Simonson asked to present this to the Council. Mr. Hoffmeister said the area residents would be glad to assist in planting the trees. Mr. Schumacher recommended that this petition be presented to the Park Board at their next meeting.
