Campbell Senior Center is accessible to people with disabilities, and <br /> interpreters can be provided if requested 48 hours in advance. <br /> At the meeting, City staff will seek comments from community residents and organizations <br /> about the location, character and scale of activities and improvements in West Alton Baker Park. At <br /> subsequent meetings the design program, followed by the plan itself, will be shared and revised <br /> according to public comments received. <br /> The western portion of Alton Baker Park comprises approximately 142 acres, of which about <br /> a fourth has been developed for a variety of activities.
