Beverly says Newton Hailey is having problems with aerial maps of proposed pool area -- so no update on pool. Dale says Asbell lease approved by school. He needs only to take copy to Community Development. Asbell! now not eligible for 1981 Community Development. Reagan reported Rick ason said a survey could be done. We question why 1980 Community Development approved at Asbell and now 1981 is not. Reagan will pursue. Don Grimes asked if we are interested in purchase of golf range on west side of Lake Fayetteville as owner is retiring. We have no idea of financing but certainly are interested in acquiring that land. Naming Babe Ruth Park ballfields -- Babe Ruth people would like a field named after 1) Orby McClelland, 2) Jim Gibson. Unanimous approval for Waite to get City Board approval tomorrow evening. Names to be put on scoreboards. Back field for Gibson, front for McClelland. McWethy spoke about Asbell Community Development eligibility for 1981. We feel the area will be eligible when Washington Plaza gets considered. McWethy asks if this Board would do a survey in the area. Mason says even if a survey showed 51% L & MI, HUD might reject because the gym does not serve resident youngsters. Mason checked Asbell School and found only 22% L & MI. City wide projects prohibited by Community Development. George said he would like to talk to HUD directly to get some assurance that if we walked the area to survey we would be doing something useful. He will call Charlie Blevins (378-5951) at HUD and we will make a decision after that. Rick Mason says same problem exists with Washington Mountain area and we have to prove eligibility. He checked and found 23E residences and 42% L & MI (1970 census). Both of these areas have to be qualified in about seven days. Dale suggests modifying programs at Asbell to qualify. Rick says only totals are available from 1980 census. 40 1 • • • George came back from telephone conversation with Blevins at HUD who asked for usage stats on gym.
