December 16; 1985
The Parks and Recreation Advisory Board came to order at 5:05 pm.
MINUTES: Minutes of the December 2, 1985 PEAB Meeting were
approved unanimously.
York/Yarbrough (5-0)
BUSINESS:
I. 1986 Budget Status:
Park Director, Dale Clark, reported that the 1986 Base
Budget had to be cut back $60,000. Most of these items
cut out of the budget will be taken care of in-house by
the City's new structural design.
II. Green Space Quail Creek Addition:
A surveyor has been hired to,survey the proposed Park
Land which will be presented to the City Board for their
consideration.
III. Crossover Park Entry Road:
Eleven residents from the Crossover Park neighborhood
attended the Parks Board Meeting. Mr. Lloyd Boling,
Spokesman of the neighborhood, expressed their concern
for the public to use the entrance road until the City
has constructed and maintained the road as a public street.
Other concerns of the residents were the park not being
fenced, fire hazard of the woods, and little or no super-
vision of the park. (See enclosed letter) Horticulturist,
Patti Reid, has gathered information from the City Planning
Office and the Court House in regards to the property lines
and easements. In order to meet the City standards for the
road to become a City Street, a 50 foot wide road is re-
quired. Reid stated an additional 10 feet of land is needed
at the east end of the entrance and 3 feet at the top off
of Highway 265 to meet the City's 50 feet street standards.
If this was the pleasure of PRAB, a Quick Claim Deed needs
to be requested to the Planning Commission. Reid also
stated that the City Street Department is currently gravel-
ing the road down to the Park.

PRAB expressed their concern for access to the Park. The
extention of Township Road will create an intersection with
Hwy 265 adjacent to the Park within the next ten years.
The priority for funding development of Crossover Park is
low on the Park Department's list.
MOTION: Yarbrough/Lashley PRAB recommends to the City
Planning Commission for a Quick Claim Deed of the additional
land by Crossover Park to meet the 50 foot City Standards
for a street. PRAB recommends for the public to be aware
of all meetings regarding Crossover Park entry road. Motion
passed unanimously (7-0).

Re: Crossover Road Park
Gentlemen:
Reference is made to your letter of December 11, 1985
wherein you advised that there will be a discussion of the
Crossover Road Park entry road at 5:30 P. M. December 16,
1985.
The individuals who currently use this road for
private ingress -egress are: Mr. & Mrs. Lloyd Boling, Mr. &
'airs. :Murphy Taylor, lir. & Mrs. Carlos Treat, Nr. Tracy King,
Mr. & firs. Clarence Thornsberry, Mr. & Mrs. Ken Poore, Mr. &
Mrs. Manny Terminella, Mr. & Mrs. Travis Grogan and Mrs.
Josephine Burson.
This is a private road and it has been unanimously
agreed by the above owners that it would not be in their
best interests to allow public use of this road until such
time as the City of Fayetteville has exercised its right of
constricting and maintaining this road as a public street.
such time as this road is dedicated by the city as
a public street special attention must be given to a private
sewer line serving Mr. Taylor's house and running along the
North side of the road for several hundred feet to a connect-
ion on the city sewer line.
Other concerns that we have regarding the development
of this park are as follows:
1. Park not fenced.
A. Boundries of park will not be observed by users.
B. :entrance not fenced making it possible for
users to camp at night, etc.
2. _'ire hazard
A. In dry part of summer woods will burn.
B. No means to control a woods fire when it does
occur.
3. Little or no supervision.

Sincerely yours,
