The City has been contact by T-Mobile to introduce the possibility of constructing a 10'X12' building along with a 100' pole that would have antennas mounted on it in Groveland Park.
The proposed location would be just off of the northeast corner of the basketball court. The initial proposal would include an $800 monthly rental fee with an annual escalator percentage
of 3% - both would be negotiable. There is also the possibility to utilize the pole for mounting lights for the skating rink at Groveland.

County Road 10 Corridor Improvement Program
The City Council accepted the preliminary design of landscape architecture elements for the County Road 10 Trailway Corridor on October 9, 2006. This information will be added to the
City’s web site.
The first project of the County Road 10 Trailway Corridor Program has been ordered and plans are currently being drafted. Plans and Specifications will be completed in early November.
Staff will contact the Park and Recreation Commission when they are available. If there are in a PDF format, Staff will email them out to the Commission for review and comment. It is
anticipated that this project will begin in January of 2007.
The City is also working on developing a project feasibility report for the trailway project planned for the north side of County Road 10 between County Road H and Silver Lake Road.
The City has received a federal grant for this project in the amount of $525,000. If this project is ordered, it is anticipated that construction would start in late summer 2007.
Random Park Building Status Report
Interior walls and ceiling will be completed this week. On Monday, October 23, 2006, the Council authorized the contractor to add electrical lines to the building to allow for the installation
of two ceiling fans.
The City has requested the contractor to be completed by November 15th. The interior walls will then be painted by a Boy Scout who has volunteered to do this work as part of his requirement
to obtain an Eagle Scout badge. Next, the tiling and carpet contractor will complete their work. Then staff and / or a plumbing contractor will finish mounting plumbing fixtures.
Landscaping beds will be created around the building this year. However, the actual planting will occur until next spring. This may be done with the aid of volunteers or perhaps as an
Eagle Scout project.
The Park and Recreation Commission may want to consider conducting a ribbon cutting ceremony at the December 21st meeting.
Groveland Park Building Status Report
The schedule is to have the building completed by December 5th, and the landscaping would be finished up in the spring.
