the planning that goes into Good Neighbor Days and that surrounding neighborhoods would be <br />used and possibly a portion of the open field for more parking during this large event. <br />Commissioner Arcand asked what the thoughts were behind the design of Fitzgerald Ave., <br />especially in concept plan #3. <br />Parks planner, Syverson, answered that providing an area where people have to slow down have <br />been preferred by all groups and this layout would make it safer for crossing pedestrians. <br />Overall, the Planning Commission favored concept plan #1. They preferred a through street for <br />Fitzgerald Ave., the central location of the pavilion, the layout of active amenities, and the drop- <br />off area for events. They also liked that the more active amenities are away from the senior <br />housing and that the senior housing residents could look out over an open field. <br />Commissioner Arcand asked about the fundraising process for Lions Park. <br />Parks Planner, Syverson, said that the City Council wants to know what the budget will be for <br />the park, and therefore, hasn't allocated any funds for this project, yet. She said that Staff is <br />looking to partner with many different groups including Lions Club, businesses, and individual <br />donors to help fund the project. <br />Adjournment <br />Commissioner Arcand motioned to adjourn, seconded by Commissioner McRoberts. <br />All Ayes. Motion carried. <br />Respectfully submitted. <br />Rachel Leitz <br />
