Plaza Center Blocked by City Council Panel Lease Rejected
Lakewood Plaza Citizens Improvement Association faced defeat as the City Council Building and Grounds Committee voted unanimously against leasing a 4 5 acre site east of Studebaker Road and south of Spring Street for a community service building. The committee urged the county to consider supplying a building and site managed by Recreation, opening access to other neighborhood groups. Recreation Director Walter L. Scott stressed city policy favors shared use of land. If needed, a $40,000 appropriation from the special projects fund could be authorized. Meanwhile, the panel deferred decision on a $175,000 Heartwell Park land offer.
