HAMMITT Bob <br /> From: LYLE Les A <br /> To: KLEIN Glenn; WISE Joan <br /> Cc: MORGAN Dick A; HAMMITT Bob; ANDERSEN Chris F <br /> Subject: FW: Scobert Park <br /> Date: Monday, September 16, 1996 1:37PM <br /> Priority: High <br /> I think the term that created the concern below is "shrub beds" that Dick and I discussed. That term does <br /> not clearly describe the extent of the closure which will likely be everything but the grassy areas in the <br /> front part of the park. So, Joan, Glen, please draft the admin. order such that we can edit /refine over here <br /> after our meeting at 5:00. Thanks Les L <br /> From: NORRIS Linda H <br /> To: LYLE Les A; KLEIN Glenn; WISE Joan <br /> Cc: MORGAN Dick A; HAMMITT Bob; ANDERSEN Chris F <br /> Subject: RE: Scobert Park <br /> Date: Monday, September 16, 1996 1:38PM <br /> The only revision I would make to this note is that we haven't agreed to anything yet in regard to which <br /> part of the park we close off. I asked Bob Hammitt to have his crews look at the park today, and meet <br /> with me and Les at 5pm today to get their recommendations. We'll review the staff's recommendation <br /> with the recommendation from the citizen group, and will make a decision. I'm sure Shawn will also want <br /> to know what we're doing. In terms of the sign, it can just say "Closed for Restoration" if that's easier. <br /> Linda <br /> From: LYLE Les A <br /> To: KLEIN Glenn; WISE Joan <br /> Cc: NORRIS Linda H; MORGAN Dick A; HAMMITT Bob; ANDERSEN Chris F <br /> Subject: Scobert Park <br /> Date: Monday, September 16, 1996 1:18PM <br /> Priority: High <br /> Glen, just so you don't forget, this is what we discussed on <br /> the mall with respect to the Scobert Park closure. <br /> 1. Instead of a full closure we are proposing to fence off <br /> the "shrub beds" in an effort to give them some restoration <br /> time and an ability for staff to go in and do whatever is <br /> needed eg. transplant, prune, cleanup, etc. <br /> 2. The signs will say something to the effect " this area <br /> closed beyond this point for vegetation rehabilitation ". I <br /> presume we will include the other legal information we planned <br /> on using on the earlier signs siting the admin. order #, etc. <br /> We can place the signs on the fence if we choose or place <br /> them on posts. <br /> 3. The duration should state something to the effect that <br /> this area will be closed up to Dec. 2, 1996 to give us the <br /> latitude to open it sooner if necessary. <br /> 4. Dick and I discussed the fencing as being approximately 42 <br /> inches in height and not being chain link ( I think he said <br /> something like farm fencing instead). <br /> Dick, etal, if you have any other thoughts, please let Joan <br /> know so we can have this available for tomorrow. I presume <br /> the closure will be 12:01 but since we won't signing up until <br /> normal work hours, I'm not sure if that is still appropriate. <br /> To keep faith with Shawn, it seems 12:01 would be best unless <br /> there is a legal problem. We can always enforce the park <br /> Page 1 <br />
