Rasor Park Master Plan Complete, Restoration Continues <br /> City parks planners recently completed a master plan for Rasor Park, a neighborhood park on the east side of River Road <br /> in the vicinity of Stults Avenue. The master plan was developed over the course of a year-long planning and public input <br /> process. The plan emphasizes protection of the natural Greenway setting and minimal built structures. The plan <br /> recommends a gradual approach to restore native vegetation and habitat(savanna restoration). The plan also calls for <br /> continuing neighborhood and volunteer involvement in the design and maintenance of the park. <br /> Parks staff has approved a planting plan for the next phase of savanna restoration compatible with the new master plan. <br /> The Friends of Rasor Park, an all-volunteer neighborhood group, is coordinating a work party to plant more native trees <br /> and shrubs at the park this Saturday, March 9, from 9 a.m. to noon. For more information, contact Robin Hostick, Parks <br /> Planner, at 682-4915, or Becky Riley, Friends of Rasor Park, at 461-4281. <br /> I <br /> THIS WEEK <br /> 03/08- 12 BT,NN National League of Cities Conference Washington, D.C. <br /> NEXT WEEK <br /> 03/11 M 11:30pm NN,SM,BB Planning Commission + 3 EWEB Community Room ** <br /> (Walking tour of Courthouse area; tour to begin approx. 12:10 p.m.) <br /> 03/11 M 5:30pm All Council Dinner Work Session McNutt Room <br /> ABSENT: Taylor, Nathanson <br /> 03/11 M 8:00pm All Council Meeting Council Chamber <br /> ABSENT: Taylor, Nathanson <br /> 03/11 Time Approx.
