RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD - DISCUSSION ISSUES

- Should we return the land to the County?
2) Current PBG Facilities:
- Can we gather enough support to pass a $IOMM Bond issuance?
- Can we provide good information to the residents on age of the
existing facilities, needed repairs and proposed modifications?
- What population figure will the improved facilities be able to
support? 2005 ?, 2010?
• 3) Survey Questions:
What additional facilities, programs or services can the City provide
to better suit your interests? (i.e. - Gym, Ballfields, Playground
