Bri n dley, Parks Engineer From : Jack C . Delius, General Manager of Parks & Recreation I am sorry to keep piling priorities on you, but this is v ery rush . On a confidential basis, the Mayor has been approached by a donor interest ed in g i v in g the City $100 , 000 . 00 . After wading through all the re commendat ions that we have made and the iQJ. imination of Conally Stre et play gro und since it is in Model Cities, George Berry would like for us to select thre e o~ four playlots, det ermi ne approximately what it would cost us to buy them, and then figure up as quitkl~ as po ssib l e some type of deve lopment, not as elaborate as the Astra-turf play gro unds in Savanna h. You should check wit h Miss Mims as to the recommendations on the thr ee or four playlots to be selected, b e in g sure that none of them a ~e in Model Cities. You should go to the Land Agent and get a rough appraisal on the v a lue of the , lots as soon as possible. You should get your staff together and make rec ommendat ions as to how the se playlots should be permanently improve d. Finally, remember that the total bud~et for a0qui~j.tion and · development of all three of four p l aylots is $ 100,000.00. I know very well that you are on many high priority it ems , but pl ease g iv e this your utmo st attention. Thank you for your assistance. JCD :tm / cc: Mr. George Berry, Mayor ' s Office �
