All interested parties attended the all day charette, including <br /> representatives from DSL, BLM, L -COG, and various City staff. This design <br /> team provided good direction to the engineering design team by setting specific <br /> goals and priorities for the final design.

Based on a comparison of the 1962 and 1994 site surveys, it <br /> was estimated that approximately 10,556.72 cubic yard of fill should be <br /> removed from the site. <br /> The site was staked for constuction on September 8, 1993.
