Memo to Barry Bauer Page 3 There are three major reasons for relocating che new courts to the Northweat corner of the s<hool proper[y: 1. The existing eourts were laid out incorrec[ly and do not have a fawra6le relationship wi[h [he sun. 2. The nea tennia court loca[ian would allov for be[ter community inwlvement crith increased parking and visibility. 3. The new locatiort will decrease vandalism on [he echool site. The nev tenais cour[s aite will consist of four "championship" courta with fencing, color coating, lighting aad bang boarda for echaol aad overflow use. The total coat for the tennia court installations ia projected at $50,000.00. The total cost would be divided between the City and School Dis[rict vith the Ciry's ahare coming from a matching granc. A cost breakdown for 1979 is as follws: Asphalt Lighting Feacing Color Coaring, ne[ posta, etc. Total 20,000.00 15,000.00 10,000.00 5,000.00 550,000.00 1980 - Phase three of [he Edgewood pzoject would consist of the development of a four lane -y mile track around the football field. There preaently are only tvo tracks in the entire achool district, both of vhich axe located at the Eigh School site.

The addition of a track at Hdgewood wuld be a great asaet and would apen up exteneive program poasibilities bo[h at the day school and comnunity level. The coat of the track would be approximately 510,000.00.
