The health park has been made possible by the recent demolition of
the former Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital. The hospital donated
the 3.75-acre site to the city for park development. The public
meeting will begin with a slide presentation showing the site of the
new park and its relationship to other land uses in the city.
Examples of activities and equipment that might be provided in a
health park will be shown and discussed.
The public will be asked to fill out "input forms" with
information such as who will use the park, what activities users
will enjoy, what facilities are needed, and what priorities should
be applied. The forms also will be available at City Hall for those
who cannot attend the meeting.
There will be a second meeting to view and evaluate preliminary
plans, once they are developed. The time and place of the meeting
will be announced.
