Proposed Plan of Improvement of Columbia Park Submitted to Park Board This Morning.
When the park board met this morn'
ing Park-keeper Mische submitted a
plan for beautifying Columbia park and
JH6 "board dcciaed to set ft Say for a
. Special meeting when the matter will
fee. taken up for discussion. The plan
Submitted by the parkkeejper is on the
una general lines In vogue In parks
jn other cities in that It provides a larg-e
Vacant area for playgrounds and at
the same time reserves the natural
beauty of the park for walks and rest
ing spots.
t All the trees will be arranged In a
manner that will preserve the sym
metry of the grounds and provide shady I
resting spots for the habitues of the
park. Borne of the trees are now lo
cated on the vacant area but In order
to carry out the scheme they will be
removed to adjoin the music court and
pathways.
Tha park comprises About 30 acres
n1 the board this morning voted to
ask the council to purchase a sirlp
about 50 feet wide and 750 feet long
adjoining the park grounds from F. 1.
WcKenna.
Included In the park will be swings,
lawns for children, hall grounds, ten
nis courts, a music court and promenade
besides pathways and benches. Once
the board takes action in approving
the plan, working plans and specifi
cations will be drawn up and then the
board will ask the council for the
money for the park. While this red
tape procedure takes time, Parkkeeper
Mmohe hnpps to ho ahla to have thp
plans approved and favorable action
taken by the council in January when
the yearly estimates are made.
Mische stated that . In other cities
where he has worked that when he had
drafted a plan for a park it was con
sidered by the president of the board
and himself. They either adopted 'the
plan or rejected It within half an hour's
conference. Mische was considerably
surprised when he found out that It
would take a special meeting of the
board to decide whether the plan is a
good one or not.
