The main problem is at the old Starr 43 Piano works. Dirt has been brought in from the sewer project, limbs had been 44 dumped following the ice storm and apparantly individuals felt it was an ac- 45 ceptable practice. This causes difficulty for the Board that is trying to 46 establish the area as a park. The area ceased being used as a dumping ground 47 about ten years ago. Since this has not been officially designated as a 48 park, the Park Department does not have jurisdiction. 49 50 Mr. Webb suggested taking the matter under advisement to obtain a better idea 51 of what and who is involved. 52 53 Mr. Cordell moved to table the request, seconded by Mr. Webb and on unanimous 54 voice vote the motion was carried. 55 56 REQUEST TO USE FREEDOM FOUNTAIN FOR MEMORIAL SERVICES - Lotich 57 58 Mr. Phil Lotich, member of Post #65 of the American Legion, stated that the 59 10th District of the American Legion requests:.the use of the Freedom Fountain 60 for a Memorial Service on June 27 at 11 :00 a.m. They wish to recognize 61 deceased policemen and firemen who have lost their lives in the line of duty. 62 It is an annual service held within the 10th District and will last about 63 twenty minutes.
