This ar0a Is read g to be used, and tho Psers are read.; to enjoy it. The prolosed valec tax amendmont, should it be ancoptcd by thn voters, could be put to use in a most apprarriate way: the park, as its property lines stand now, has Alms to the Roaring Fora river only on akinfinitely snall scale. It tOuKes the river at a pointo only. On tho Other hand a cartair, Dr* POOVOP owns a triangular qece of •royerty almost entirely onclosed by the Garrish rark. it SOWS to 00 dountfal for a ouildino to be Constructed on that site ( lack of access; . To this present owner the property might be of little real estate value. However, the city should negotiate its purchase. That way the first stop (aside from _error park) to it surs a green belt along the river would oe taken. In terms of Garrish park: the relatiyoly stcarlbanhlriver would require the installation of a trail to the water, probably -ith half links of railroad ties. But foremost I PrOTOse to lot older hi6s' use this area as a so-called Robinson Grasoe play area. Come strong cottonwood trees, dead tree trunks, relatively soft ground almost Avits kids to build somathinj. A Aw old timbers and some Old cOnstyuctiO _ wood would WWI Joey childr6n busy doing somettinS constructive in this particalar rlaac ratner than destructive some&eyo oiso. TAs kind of play area has vcoven to be most affoctive both in uruan and in AD? areas. In forticular in Europe Crusoo play areas ere a houseiold 'F in conclusion we see two main thrusts for the establishment of this Gariish lark: Firstly, the few steps to inrrove a naturally beautiful atea; and secondly, the acquisition of a c6rtain Irian,,-alar -rro _ce of pc-rty to itsure access to ths river and t_m�­ th oreen belt n
