MINUTES: Minutes of the July 15, 1985 PRAB meeting were approved as mailed. BUSINESS: I. Gregory Park - V.A. Access Road: Johnny Quinn and Wayne Jones representing McClelland Engineers presented three street proposals from the V.A. Hospital to Sycamore Street (by Greenvalley Street). The grade averages 5.1 percent (3 to 8 percent range). PRAB discussed why other routes were not investigated that would not go through the middle of Gregory Park. McClelland explained that the City gave them proposed Route B through the Park to work on. PRAB further expressed their concern for safety of park users with a street running through the Park. Storm drainage is part of the project. McClelland explained that this was a Conceptual Plan that will be presented to the City Board of Directors on Tuesday, August 20th. PRAB stated that only six to seven bad weather days a year prohibited a road through the Park leading to Woolsey Street. This would not breakup the Park through the middle. MOTION: Lashley/Sego After review of the Conceptual Plan of design of the access road through Gregory Park, PRAB substains their position of disapproval of the street through Gregory Park because it destroys the intended or future use for the Park PRAB recommends their position taken at their July 15, 1985 meeting that the park property be deeded back to the Veterans Administration for design, maintenance, supervision, and liability.
