PARKS & RECREATION DEPARTMENT MONTHLY REPORT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT FEBRUARY 1977 Redwood Shores Park Development The grading for the construction of Dolphin Parks I , II , and III and for the first phase of Marlin II is now complete . The installation of the irrigation system is underway and will proceed to completion . It should be noted that the City Council , upon recommendation of the staff , agreed to defer any planting of the park areas resultant from the drought situation . The balance of the construction elements for the parks , however , will be completed . In that dust may become a prob- lem resultant from no planting , the irrigation system can be used on occasion in an attempt to control the dust situation . The tennis courts have been constructed and are now awaiting the final finish surfacing of the courts as well as the fencing . The construc - tion of the play apparatus area is underway , together with the access walks . Mezes Park There has been a delay in the completion of the Mezes Park restrooms and picnic facilities resultant from the City ' s refusal to accept some of the workmanship involved with these items . Additionally , the turf area has not reached an acceptable quality as yet , and has not been accepted . Several meetings have been held with the contractor and his representative in order to expedite the completion of the work . The contractor is in the process of removing the picnic tables and benches so that they can be reconstructed in a satisfactory manner . Every effort is being made to expedite this work in anticipation of the project being brought to acceptable quality . The construction drawings for the parking area to be constructed in the vicinity of the Red Morton Recreation Center are nearly complete . This project is being handled by the Public Works Department and cur- rent schedules indicate that the project will be ready for final appro - val by the end of March .
