Money in lieu due to the close proximity of Gregory
Park and the acreage dedication requirement is minimal.
This is a P.U.D. development in which 30 percent of
the land must be in green space.
7. Recommendation to Name City Park located in the Covington Subdivision:
Last month, Park staff presented the naming of the park in the Covington subdivision to
PRAB. According to the newly adopted park naming policy, the issue is left on the table until
the next scheduled PRAB meeting to allow time for public comment on the proposed names.
Park staff has three recommendations to name the 2.25 acre park in the Covington
Subdivision. The park is located east of Crossover Park and north of Township. The three
names submitted include Braden Park, Braden Isle, and Braden Island. The park boundaries
form a tear drop shape with sidewalk and streets around the perimeter. Historical Significance:
The original Braden Community School house was located at the corner of Highway 45 and
265 near the current site of McIlroy Bank. The school was established prior to 1884 as
Washington County School District #9 serving the area in which the park is located. Naming
this park Braden would acknowledge a community which existed throughout the 1800's until
about 1970 and recognize the region's past heritage for generations to come.
PRAB Motion:
8. Park Land Dedication Fund Request:
+3•Crer°
Park Staff recommends approval to purchase and install a water fountain for the BMX and
Skate Park areas located in Walker Park North from the park land dedication fund in the
southeast park district. There is ample funding for this project and a water fountain is needed
to serve the participants. The funds would include cost of water tap, waterline installation,
handicap water fountain ($1,800) and a cement slab.
PRAB Motion:
9. Informational Item:
Lisa Paschal, Park Horticulturist, is working with Chaim Goodman-Strauss's in his request to
donate his labor to carve the oak that died near the northwest corner of Wilson Park. His
work can be seen in his front yard on the corner of Prospect and Gregg Streets.
