- 120 Mr. Weeks mentioned that if time allowed, the Commission might want to discuss any change in Capital Improvements for the coming year with the City Council. MONTHLY REPORTS Commissioner Schlesinger requested some information about the work being done on McGarvey baseball fiedl. Mr. Weeks explained that the field in nát scheduled for use through the winter and that the contractor did start final preparation of the infield this week. There is very little left for completion. There is some question between the architect and the contractor with regard to the construction of the park name sign; however, this is being resolved. There is also a problem with the completion of the tennis courts due to cold weather. In order to put the final coats on the tennis courts, the moisture and temperature must be right. It is likely that the courts will be opened for temporary play during the winter and final surfaces will be applied in spring. Aside from a few minor problems, for all practical purposes phase two construction is nearly completed. Mr. Weeks explained that he had a review with the consultants with regard to Redwood Shores Park plans. The site paIns are complete; however, there appears to be a rather major problem concerning the distribution of funds for the various phases. Soil analysis will be completed in order to determine if the sale water intrusion problem can be resolved without tile drainage, which will have a major affeet on how far available funds will go (approximately $78,OQO is involved). Mr. Weeks stated taht they are fairly hopeful that underground drainage will not be necessary. With refeyencee to the parking lot in phase three for Red Morton Community Park Mr. Weeks mentioned that the Public Works Department has agreed to handle the design and construction of the parking lot in-house. It will probably be late spring before construction will be underway. MOTION: Commissioner Pound moved to accept the Departmental monthly reports seconded by Commissioner Weintraub.
