<br /> C. John Holt, 42 Iris Street, asked Council when the Entry Features Program would be <br /> completed. Mr. Holt advised he knew there had been delays caused by CalTrans and <br /> CalTrain, but the area around Hamilton looked like a vast wasteland and asked if the City <br /> couldn't at least begin planting some trees and do the project in phases. <br /> City Manager Everett and Planning Director Patterson advised that all the delays were <br /> finally over, the specifications had been completed and approved by all agencies, and the <br /> Planning Department was preparing the project to go out for bid. Director Patterson said the <br /> project would begin construction in late winter or early spring. City Manager Everett <br /> explained that doing the project in phases added additional costs to the total project. <br /> MEMO 11/28/95 <br /> D. Denise Introcaso and Carolynn Santos, parents of children in the John GilVOrion <br /> Immersion Schools in Redwood City, told the Council how happy they were with their <br /> children's schools and how important parent involvement was in schools and education. <br /> Mrs. Introcaso invited the Council to "A Fiesta to Bring our Community Together - John <br /> Gill/Orion Spanish Immersion", Thursday, December 7, 1995,6-9 p.m., Hoover School, 701 <br /> Charter Street.
