He said that in return <br />for a building permit for an apartment complex on Farm Lot 25, <br />known locally as "the Nelson River Property", Mr. and Mrs : Meeks <br />would deed a strip ISO feet wide along the River, to the City. <br />The strip would extend the length of the property, and would be <br />measured from the west bank bf the River. In addition to the <br />building permit, there were other stipulations involved in the <br />gift. These were outlined by Mr. Roberts as 1) the strip ~ould <br />always be used for a public par~; 2) that a~rang~~ents would be <br />completed by Jan. I, 1969, and that the City must mow and main- <br />tain the ISO-ft. strip; 3) that access from the Meeks property <br />to the pa~k must be granted; 4) that Mr. Meeks be given the first <br />refusal, if the City granted any concessions.on'the.p~rk p~operty <br />concerned. <br />The Mayor said the offer had been discussed by the Council,and <br />that final boundaries for the park had not been set. Mr. Flores <br />said that inasmuch as other applicants for building permits within <br />the GNRP area had been turned down, he didn't feel it would be wise <br />to give Mr. Meeks a permit to build. Mr. Zavesky said that land <br />had been long planned for eX~ansion of the park. Dr. Pool agreed. <br />
