MEMORANDUM
To: A. P. Brindley, Parks Engineer
From: Jack C. Delius, General Manager of Parks & Recreation
I am sorry to keep piling priorities on you, but this is
very rush. On a confidential basis, the Mayor has been
approached by a donor interested in giving the City
$100,000.00. After wading through all the recommenda-
tions that we have made and the i@limination of Conally
Street playground since it is in Model Cities, George
Berry would like for us to select three o& four playlots,
determine approximately what it would cost us to buy
them, and then figure up as quickly as possible some
type of development, not as elaborate as the Astro-turf
playgrounds in Savannah. You should check with Miss
Mims as to the recommendations on the three or four
playlots to be selected, being sure that none of them
are in Model Cities. You should go to the Land Agent
and get a rough appraisal on the value of the: lots as
soon as possible. You should get your staff together
and make recommendations as to how these playlots shouid
be permanently improved.
Finally, remember that the total budget for acauisition
and development of all three of four playlots is $100,000.00.
I know very well that you are on many high priority items,
but please give this your utmost attention.
Thank you for your assistance.
