fluenced or dominated by the

Acting ~

towards the. development.
Whatever is needed after grants
have been examined will be
represented by the referendum
figure.

Council’ ‘Ss representative to
the Commission, Alderman
Norah Jacques, expressed the
feeling of the commission when
she pointed out that by going to
referendum the cost of the
development to'city taxpayers,
would be spread over a twenty

year period. This would mean - ;

that future residents of the area
who were benefitting from the
park would also be helping to
apy for the facility.

Mrs. Jacques also expressed
the opinion that by developing
the site in one fell swoop,
vandalism would’ be cut to a
minimum. She felt that Terrace
residents, seeing their park
blossom Instead of mature over
“a three or five year, or longer
period, would develop agrealer
sense of pride in the Lower
Litule Park site.
