The minutes of the September 14 and October 12 meetings were approved as mailed. ITEM 1 - REDWOOD SHORES PARKS MASTERPLAN Director Griffiths said that in the distant future the Redwood Shores Parks Masterplan called for an additional 30 acres. Redwood Shores, Inc. is in the process of developing areas G and F. Additional parkland would be dedicated to the city as development proceeds. The two alternate designs for the Marlin Park extension were displayed. Discussion revolved around the changes requested by Shores residents that were incorporated into the new designs. Limited parking (on street only) and additional tennis courts were among these changes. Alternative #1 showed two tennis courts and alternative #2 showed 4 tennis courts. Commissioner Slusser questioned the need for this as Redwood Shores currently has four courts. The two new designs will be published in the December issue of the "Pilot" and again resident comments are encouraged. ITEM 2 - DICKEY STREET NO PARKING SIGNS Mr. and Mrs. Bob Nessel explained to the Commission the many problems that occur on Dickey Street late at night. Mr. Nessel said that he regularly phones the Police Department to respond to "partiers" and disturbances. The draft report to Council prepared by the Traffic Division listed several alternatives, although the recommended alternative is to post "No Parking" signs on" the east side of the street and uNo Parking from 10 p.m. to 6 a'.m. daily, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays" signs on the west side of the street.
