the removal of approximately six to eight trees. Both Marian and
Henry Kroeker were concerned with the removal of the trees and,
therefore, presented an alternative to Committee of Council on

Monday, May 16th.

The proposal from the Kroekers was that a ten foot easement be
ereated on their property. This easement would be allowed until
December 31st, 1990, at which time tha agreement would be termi-
nated. The City solicitor is presently drawing up the appropriate
documents. for the easement, 7

fence on either side, The purpose of the easement is to permit
aceess for the department's mowing equipment inte the park.
