Locking the Gates on Norwood and Jeppesen Acres Road: There have been mixed reactions. It <br /> seems to have smoothed out toward the end of the Football season. However, <br /> recently all the padlocks have been replaced and the new locks cannot be opened <br /> with the keys that were distributed to the neighbors during the fall and winter. <br /> Small fields near Meadowlark Elementary School: The Sheldon High- school <br /> Lacrosse team now practices on these fields. During the Lacrosse <br /> practice time elementary children are not able to play on the fields. <br /> Garbage: Garbage is not always picked up and some of it lies in the street until it is picked up. <br /> Concession stands: Do the concession stands conform to the health rules? Do they require a <br /> restaurant license? Do they require a food handler's license? Are there places to <br /> wash their hands after using the portable restroom facilities? <br /> Trees cut down along Norwood south of the baseball diamond: Meadow Lark <br /> Elementary students planted these trees. The type of tree cut down is <br /> Incense Cedar; it is a slow growing tree. I understand EWEB cut <br /> down the trees because they were growing up into the distribution <br /> power lines. The trees were planted 10 feet east of the distribution <br /> power line centerline and likely would have been trimmed had they <br /> been in some -ones yard. Is there some other reason why the trees were <br /> cut down? <br /> Policy regarding naming of Fields: Recently the Multi -Use field at South Eugene <br /> High- School was named for Ken Morrow. The Intergovernmental <br /> Agreement in Section 9 Field Names states, "District reserves the right <br /> to name the four artificial surface fields after consultation with the <br /> City and the User Committee." I was E- mailed asking if I concurred <br /> with the name Ken Morrow. I concurred, but I really don't know who <br /> Ken Morrow is or was, I will appreciate it if someone enlightens me. <br /> I am attaching some pictures of the Sheldon Fields. Two pictures are of signs discussed <br /> above. Another is a picture of the distribution power line and bark -o -mulch mounds <br /> indicating the location of the trees that were cut down. Three pictures are of the trail <br /> intersection located south west of the Sheldon Swimming Pool. At this intersection <br /> additional traffic control posts need to be installed because cars drive around them and <br /> drive all over the Sheldon Fields. In the pictures please note the locations of the <br /> proposed new control posts. <br /> Committee Member, <br /> ,, <br /> Arnold L.
