Remove <br />the old back -stop and accommodate baseball <br />use with a portable backstop and batting cage. <br />No lights. <br />• Provide an east /west path connection to the <br />bike path. <br />• Provide a north /south path connection to <br />Roosevelt Middle School. <br />Allow overflow parking in a confined area west <br />of Hilyard Community Center.

Or is it a bridge? It's the Zig Zag Bridge, <br />and it will soon find a home in Amazon Park. A <br />1% for Art piece by local artist Lee Imonen, the <br />Zig Zag bridge encourages one to slow down and <br />take some time to enjoy the view of Amazon <br />Creek. <br />The bridge also provides valuable east /west <br />connectivity through the park as it connects to the <br />existing Adidas Trail. Improvements to Adidas <br />Trail will help keep your feet dry in the winter and <br />shore up the trail for years to come. <br />Also proposed in this general location is a new <br />native plant buffer. Low areas to the east of the <br />bike path and adjacent to the sports fields can be <br />enhanced with native forbs and grasses to create a <br />more natural transition to the creek corridor. <br />
