The meeting is the <br /> second public workshop designed to gather input from area residents about this currently <br /> undeveloped neighborhood park located at the south end of the Amazon Parkway between <br /> West Amazon Drive and Alpine Loop. The low-impact concept plan to be discussed at the <br /> meeting is based on a desire for minimal improvements as expressed by neighbors gathered at <br /> the first public workshop in November. Meeting participants will also be able to discuss the <br /> results of a survey recently sent to nearly 850 park neighbors to help gather input about the <br /> proposed improvements. The draft park plan, as well as a report of the results of the first <br /> workshop, are currently available online at <br /> www.ci.eugene.or.us/PW/PARKS/Kinney/FKP index.htm. <br /> Park improvements are funded by the Parks and Open Space bond measure voters <br /> approved in 1998. For more information or to give input into this park planning process, call 682- <br /> 4915 or visit the website listed above. <br /> # # # <br />
