RE: NAME FOR CITY PARKS
As I and Jim Beech discussed a sign for the new park by Pioneer Key II, it dawned on us that
this park and a few others had never officially been named by the City or the City
Commission.
To this end, Mr. Beech presented this problem to the Recreation Advisory Board that
resulted in the attached memo from Mr. Beech to you.
Respectfully Submitted,

Re: Names for City Parks
The Recreation Advisory Board met on Monday, March 13th and
discussed at this meeting the subject of Park names.
The concensus of the Board was to have parks named for locations .
Such as the new park off Palm Drive, should be Palm Drive Park.
The reasoning for this thought is that by giving a street name or
sub-division name the residents of the City would be able to
locate the parks better.
Examples as follows:
( 1) Park in Silver Glenn Sub-Division - Silver Glenn Park
( 2) Park on Peach Lake - Russell Drive Park
Other suggestions, as to Park signs are shown on attached sheet .
The Commission would decide if the Park was to be dedicated in
any particular way. The only names given at this time as persons
to dedicate in memory of are:
( 1) Edwin H. "Doc" Pounds
( 2) W.H. Wurst
( 3) Delma Fields
(4) Frank W. Turner
Respectfully request you advise as to a decision so we may proceed
with "Park" signs.
