War Memorial Forum Results

I attended the public forum of the redevelopment of War Memorial Park
Tuesday evening, and here are the results from the forum.
The redevelopment project was done in three phases: Repair, Rehab,and
Revision.
Repair is everything currently in the park stays the same with a few
modifications. Most everyone in the meeting was for this plan, the
people I was in the group with agreed this redevelopment. We suggested
moving all the holes on the golf course on one side.
Rehab is the plan which takes the golf course down to nine holes and
tears down Ray Winder Field and the zoo expands in that area. Also
tearing down the Walker Tennis Center and putting in soccer fields.
Also a library is projected to go in also.
Revision completely changes everything in War Memorial Park.
No one in our group wanted this or very many people who attended
the meeting. Revision completely takes out the golf course and put in
a lake with a dock to rent boats. This plan will shut down the current
exits to Fair Park from I-630. Exits will be moved and a pedestrian
bridge included as well. More soccer fields are included as well as an
ampitheater.
My position is to keep everything the way it is. Voice your
opinion on this blog.

I think I am for the rehab plan. There is really no use in keeping an empty Ray Winder Field around. Our zoo needs improvements, and more space is one step in the right direction. But I think they should keep the tennis courts where they are. The last plan is just crazy. A duck pond with paddle boats? And a pedestrian bridge where? Over I-630? It sounds like the consultant who came up with that has no sense of the city. Also, I wonder if tailgating was brought up at the meeting, since twice a year that is the most use that park gets. It's an important piece to consider.
