Mr. Reginald Parsons of Medford and Seattle, has en abled the city to have the bene fit of services of Ben Evans, su perintendent of parks in Seattle, who spent ten days here study ing recreational needs and the park situation and has developed a park layout. With help of the Seattle park bureau engineers, which the council and planning commission feel is outstanding. All this was without cost to Medford. For landscaping, con struction of sprinkling system, wading pools, walks and build ings, $75,000 is required. New Bridge Needed The old Jackson street bridge is inadequate and unsafe and with increasing traffic attend ant on city growth and the In stallation of the new park, must be replaced. The sum of $35,- 000 is allocated for this purpose. The present-City Library, com pleted about 1911, and designed to serve a population of around 5,000, is outgrown, outmoded and unable to efficiently serve the average of 500 persons now using the facility daily. Mod ernizing the present structure and addition of space is expected to cost $102,000. Construction of storm sewers and a drainage system to take care of flood conditions and also to keep street water out of the sanitary sewer system, has long been looked upon as a para mount need. The program ear marks $482,000 for this purpose. Enlargement of the sewage disposal plant and addition of a digestion tank and a settling tank is advocated with provision for eventual addition of a gar bage disposal unit. In addition to meeting the increased de mands on the sewage disposal plant, and providing for expect ed population increase, the im provement would permit greater use of gas generated from the sewage, thus making the plant more self-supporting. Cost of the additional installation is esti mated at $231,000.
