Mro Hendrix stated that $82,000 was presently available to construct the courts, $25,000 of which had come from private donations, but that amount was not sufficient to light the courts. Ms. Cynthia Stratton, Chairman of the CDBG Task Force, stated that she felt it would be acceptable to construct four tennis courts and light them at a later date, instead of constructing and lighting two courts as had previously been recommended. Responding to a question from Mr. Buck, Mr. Hendrix stated that parking was not presently available on the site, and that the parking lot at the lower section of Tonsler Park had been closed at the request of the neighorhood. Mr. Bob Newman of 6th Street, representing the Fifeville Neighborhood Association, stated his support for the tennis courts to be constructed at the northeast corner of Tonsler Park and requested that the parking lot previously closed be opened.
