Cooperation Leads To Parks And School Property Transfer
Editorial notes commendable cooperation between the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City School Board with support from the Board of Realtors. A three way transfer would place Kirkman Park for a new elementary school building to replace the burned Bay Street School and a western site for a new park in the Northwood area. Architects say the 1962-63 term could begin if delays are avoided. The piece lauds civic service foresight and the longtime community benefits of a combined park and school development plan.
