B. Acquisition — Don Scanlon briefly talked about two lots near Crystal Springs Park.
C. 5 128th St Parcel Naming- Robert Eaton handed out a list of potential names that site Forest Steward,
Heidi Watters, had provided him. The commissioners talked about the list discussing pros and cons of the
various names. In general, they liked the term "pocket park" as part of the name. No final decisions were
made, and this item will be on next month's agenda again for further discussion. Robert also informed the
commission that staff will consider the site and provide some naming ideas as well.
Other:
A. Name badges were handed out to the commissioners that were present.
B. Robert Eaton reminded the commission of the WRPA conference coming up on May 2-3, 2018 and that
both Don Scanlon and Scott Kruize had registered for one day each. Don asked to have the banquet added
to his registration as he would like to be in attendance as they honor past councilmember Joe Duffie.
C. Robert Eaton informed the commission that there was an application submitted to join the commission
and that an interview would be scheduled soon with the applicant, Chair Don Scanlon, and Robert.
Adjournment: At 6:16pm Scott Kruize moved to close the meeting. Ivan Cockrum seconded the motion. The
motion passed unanimously.
