the Park and Becreation Fund suEge^ts percentages Uased on dxelling
numbers per acre in residential areas. Since pementages are dependant on
land valu-�tion of the acre�ge, an3 land value is a constantly ch3nging
thin� which wovld require appxaisal of each parcel un�er consideration,
it rraa felt a caah dollar 3maa�t vould be more practieal. This will
