development of the Right-of-Way will come from City funds . Thirdly , to utilize SB174 funds available in fiscal year 1978-79 which do not have the same constraint as the 1974 and 1976 State Park Bond Fund .

The subcontractors are now working at Redwood Shores . The lighting of the tennis courts will be delayed until January of 1978 , but the courts will be completed for daylight use prior to that time . Commissioner Weintraub commented on the Pinewood Derby and Commissioner Pound ' s comments ( page 5 - August 10 , 1977 minutes ) . She felt that rather than the track being moved to Redwood Shores next year , it might be better to have the children bused into Stafford Park for the event . Mr .
