Description
"After the completion of the Master Plan process in 2021, we are going to start on implementation of Phase 1. This will be a multi-phased park renovation project. The first phase will include addressing circulation throughout the park (pathways), entrances, perimeter elements, and the addition of a dog area."
A
But
this
meeting
is
being
recorded.
A
If
you
want
to
participate
in
the
meeting
verbally
and
you
don't
feel
comfortable,
you
don't
have
to
have
your
camera

but
just
a
heads
up
we're
going
to
record
this
meeting
and
we're
going
to
post
it

our
project
page
so
that
if
any
of
your
neighbors
aren't
able
to
make
the
meeting-
and
they
want
to
refer
to
it-
they
can
view
it
later
we're
also
going
to
post
the
presentation
to
our
project
page
afterwards.
A
Everything
tonight
is
going
to
be
recorded,
not
just
in
the
meeting,
but
also
in
the
chat.
So,
however,
you
choose
to
participate.
This
is
going
to
be
documented
and
part
of
our
process,
so
I
want
to
say
thank
you
and
welcome.
My
name
is
B
Chatfield
and
I
am
a
landscape,
architect
and
project
manager
at
Boston,
Parks
and
Recreation
and
I
am
excited
to
be
kicking
off.
A
So
many
of
you
probably
know
how
to
use
zoom,
but
what
we're
going
to
do
tonight
during
the
meeting
is
we're
going
to
have
the
presentation
first
and
then
during
the.
If
you
have
any
questions
during
the
presentation,
you
can
put
the
questions
that
you
have
in
the
chat
if
it's
something
quick
and
Technical
we'll
try
and
respond
to
it
during
the
presentation.
If
it's
a
bigger
question,
we
will
respond
to
it
verbally
during
the
discussion
period.
A
At
the
end,
if
you're
joining
via
phone,
you
can
hit
star
nine
to
raise
your

an
intro
now
and
then
the
review
of
the
comprehensive
plan
and
we'll
pass
the
presentation
off
to
Kyle
zick.
A
Who
is
our
fantastically
talented
landscape
architecture
consultant
on
this?
He
also
was
the
designer
and
the
landscape
architect
behind
the
comprehensive
plan.
So
we
have
some
great
continuity
with
his
continued
involvement
with
this
project,
then
we're
going
to
go
into
the
phase,
one
scope
of
work
and
then
the
discussion
period
and
then
we're
going
to
share
some
next
steps.
A
Next
slide,
so
I
am
B,
Chatfield
project

and
my
phone

pretty
quickly
to
all
of
the

If
you
have
questions
or

He
is
also
working
with
Jay
Lee,
a
very
talented
design

we're
super
lucky
to
have
them
and
we
are
working
also
with
Frank
Mendez
and
the
perfect.
Who
is
our
ons
representative
here
in
Austin?
A
Before
I
forget,
if
there
are
any
elected
officials
tonight,
I
think
I
saw
Liz
Braden
coming
into
the
waiting
room
and
I.
Think
there's
also
ref
point
in
representative
homies
here
tonight.
So
if
you
want
to
raise
your
hand
and
allow
you
to
unmute
say
a
few
words,
we
would
appreciate
hearing
from
you.
D
Good
evening,
everyone
thank
you
and
we're
so
delighted
to
get
to
the
stage
of
having
a
community
meeting
to
give
us
a
an
update
on
the
project
and
I'm
excited
to
think
that
we're
closing
in
on
making
some
significant
improvements
to
ringer
Park.
After
a
very
long
process,
it
was
sort
of
interrupted
somewhat
by
the
coven
pandemic,
so
we're
very
I'm
we're
very,
very
excited
to
be
a
part
of
this
conversation
and
to
look
forward
to
the
work
beginning
as
we
go
forward.
E
Hello,
can
you
hear
me
thank
you.
This
is
State
Rep
Kevin
honen,
very
excited
about
the
project.
I
know
a
number
of
the
neighborhood
resident
I
saw
Bob
peshek
on
the
phone
there
and
a
few
other
folks
so
very
excited
about
this
project.
There
is
thirty
thousand
dollars
in
the
state
budget
to
help
with
play
equipment
in
the
area.
E
This
is
also
35
000
for
tree
planting
just
want
to
let
you
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
dead
wood
in
the
park,
so
we're
probably
going
to
need
another
big
neighborhood
cleanup
with
a
lot.
We
don't
need
a
lot
of
volunteers,
there's
an
enormous
amount
of
dead
wood
in
the
park
and
in
the
back
we
have
still
a
rodent
issue,
a
lot
of
the
dumpsters
from
Comm
Ave
feed,
feed
the
rodents,
and
then
they
live
in
the
park
and
obviously
we
can't
use
the
dry
ice
anymore.
E
So
I
would
I
that's
a
a
discussion
for
another
day.
Today
is
a
very
exciting
day.
We're
going
to
present
to
us
your
plans
for
the
park
and
ask
for
input
so
very
happy
to
be
here.
I'll
be
here
for
about
a
half
about
45
minutes,
a
couple
of
other
meetings
I
have
to
run
off
to,
but
the
park
is
an
urban
wild
has
so
so
much
activity
in
terms
of
sports
with
basketball,
tennis,
a
lot
of
tennis
programming
in
the
park,
the
West,
End,
kids
use
it
a
lot
of
dog
walkers.
E
So
I
really
appreciate
Liz
breeden's
work
on
this
to
get
activity
in
the
park
and
Mayo
will
in
the
Boston
parks
department,
which
of
course,
an
alumni
of,
as
is
Bob
peshek,
always
loved
meeting
with
Community
groups
redesigning
Parks.
So
thank
you
for
your
time.
A
So
here
we
are.
This
is
the
first
of
three
meetings,
and
this
is
where
we
want
feedback
at
all
three
meetings
and
in
between.
But
here
is
the
sort
of
ingredients
list
of
the
park
projects
that
we
work
on.
We
try
and
combine
the
city
of
Boston
priorities,
safety
guidelines,
regulatory
guidelines,
our
own
Parks
and
Recreation
goals
and
Community
input.
So
tonight
is
one
of
quite
a
few
ingredients
that
we
use
as
far
as
developing
our
designs
and
really
understanding
what
priorities
are
and
should
be
for
our
projects.
A
So
if
we
want
to
go
to
the
next
slide,
we
have
sort
of
a
written
description
of
the
city
of
Boston
priorities,
expanding
walkable
access
to
parks
within
communities
addressing
Equity
so
trying
to
serve
communities
that
we
haven't
served
in
the
past
climate
resilience
which
has
to
do
with
you
know
so
many
different
things
from
adding
water
spray
to
increasing
tree
cover
health.
A
So
just
promoting
physical,
active
Recreation
and
Community
Building
and
those
really
are
reflected
in
our
Parks
and
Recreation
goals
as
well,
trying
to
make
Parks
accessible
and
available
to
all
trying
to
strike
a
diverse,
balanced
and
efficient
mix
of
uses.
So
you
know
if
we
have
a
park
down
the
street,
that
has
you
know
a
dog
park
or
something
like
that.
You
know
we
don't
want
to
try
and
replicate
things
if
they're
close
by
we're
trying
to
be
as
efficient
as
possible
while
serving
the
needs
of
the
community.
A
We
strive
to
have
meaningful
and
inclusive
community
engagement,
create
adaptive
and
resilient
Landscapes.
So
that's
both
in
face
of
climate
change,
as
well
as
acknowledging
that
we
are
in
an
intense
Urban
environment
and
people
love
to
use
the
parks.
So
how
do
we
try
and
make
these
things
resilient
and
maintainable
and
promote
connections?
So
that's
you
know
within
community
members
between
quarks
all
these
types
of
connections.
So
if
we
go
on
to
the
next
slide,
we
have
our
timeline
here.
This
is
the
timeline
for
the
capital
project.
A
We're
going
to
do
a
little
recap
before
about
the
process
that
took
place
to
form
the
comprehensive
plan
back
in
2020
and
2021,
but
right
now
we've
been
doing
may
or
may
and
July
through
July,
where
we
will
have
done
sort
of
site
assessment.
Talking
to
various
directors
of
various
groups.
We've
got
bcyf
here.
A
We've
got
the
West
End
house,
lots
of
different
people
who
are
trying
to
sort
of
understand
what
things
are
good
to
focus
on
so
we're
here
in
June
community
meeting,
one
in
August
we're
going
to
hold
community
meeting
two
where
we
show
a
couple
of
Design
Concepts
for
things
that
we're
looking
at
based
on
the
feedback
we
get
tonight
and
then
in
October
we're
going
to
have
the
third
community
meeting
where
we
share
like
this
is
what
we're
going
forward
with.
Is
this
right?
Does
this
look
good?
A
You
know
we're
still
able
to
respond
to
feedback
and
comments
at
that
point,
once
we
get
into
construction
documents,
it
gets
a
little
harder.
You
know
the
the
ships
going
full
steam
ahead,
but
you
know
like
I
said
this
is
basically
everything
is
negotiable
until
it's
built
right.
So
November
we've
got
construction
documents,
we
go
out
to
bid
in
April
of
2024,
and
this
would
mean
starting
construction
in
summer
of
2024.,
so
just
to
contain
expectations.
This
is
not
like
overnight
we're
going
to
get
some
Park
updates,
but
this
is
our.
A
F
All
right,
so
thanks
B,
my
name
is
Kyle
zick
I'm,
a
landscape
architect
with
Casey
LA
and,
as
B
mentioned,
my
firm
was
also
involved
with
the
comprehensive
plan.
So
one
of
the
things
I
want
to
do
is
just
kind
of
step
back
in
time.
A
little
bit
recap
some
of
the
things
we
talked
about,
what
some
of
the
comments
and
feedback
we
received
were
and
how
that
led
to
a
plan
that
will
inform
this
Fame
phase
one
Improvement
project.
F
We
had
those
virtual
meetings.
We
also
I
think
the
October
meeting
was
a.
We
had
a
drop-in
site
meeting
as
well,
and
we
talked
because
it
was
a
comprehensive
plan.
We
talked
about
everything
that
could
be
involved
with
this
park.
We
talked
about
the
ball
field.
We
talked
about
the
courts,
the
entrances,
the
play
area,
the
trails,
drainage
lighting,
The
Woodlands,
the
plan.
That's
on
the
screen
was
kind
of
a
result
of
the
comprehensive
plan
and
you
know
I'll
get
into
various
aspects
of
it.
F
F
We
have
a
proposed
dog
park
that
we
had
talked
about
a
number
of
different
locations
on
the
site,
a
renovated
playground,
new
Gathering
space
renovations
to
the
courts
in
general
and
then
work
in
the
woodlands.
In
addition
to
that,
there
were
improvements
at
all
the
entrances
Pathways
in
general
and
some
lighting
now.
G
F
Specifically
kind
of
topic
by
topic
I'll
go
through
a
few
things
that
Pathways
we
heard
throughout
the
process
that
the
main
pathway
from
Gordon
to
Alston
had
a
number
of
deficiencies.
You
know
there's
broken
pavement,
there's
poor
drainage,
some
of
it's
not
universally
accessible,
so
we
were
going
to
make
improvements
to
the
surface
itself,
widen
it
so
that
maintenance
Vehicles
could
get
to
Parts.
They
can't
get
too
readily
and
realign
the
path
closer
to
Gordon
Street
to
make
it
accessible,
and
there
were
some
like
the
path
on
the
Outfield
of
the
baseball
field.
F
F
Maintenance
access
was
a
topic,
of
course,
that
we
talked
about
with
Boston
Parks
maintenance,
but
it
influences
some
of
the
decisions
or
things
we
recommend.
The
gray
dashed
line
is
generally
where
Boston
Parks
can
access
the
site
now,
with
their
truck
in
their
trailer,
doesn't
mean
the
mower
can't
go
beyond
that,
but
they're
limited
to
go
between
the
Hillside
and
the
courts
and
they
can't
get
in
the
Gordon
Street
entrance.
F
H
F
F
In
addition
to
that,
there
are
other
aspects
of
the
woodlands
to
really
be
worked
on.
There's
some
erosion
to
address.
There
are
some
paths
that
are
really
too
Steep
and
shouldn't
be
promoted
because
they're
going
to
continue
to
be
unstable
and
then,
as
we
realign
the
path
to
Gordon
Street,
that
makes
that
accessible
we'd
have
to
realign
several
of
these
paths
to
tie
into
that.
F
We
talked
about
lighting
a
bit
and
some
of
the
things
are
fairly
straightforward,
one
if
we
realign
the
path
to
make
it
accessible.
The
light
should
follow
that
path.
Looking
back
at
the
meeting
notes,
we
had
from
the
last
meeting
March
2021.
There
was
some
debate
on
if
we
should
light
the
path
from
Alston
to
Gordon,
Street
and
I.
Think
some
people
said
absolutely.
We
use
that
path
all
the
time
and
it's
too
dark.
F
Others
said
we
shouldn't
promote
that
use
at
night
or
some
people
said
I'm
concerned
about
the
lighting
and
its
impact
to
Wildlife
one
of
the
things.
Another
recommendation
for
the
comprehensive
plan
was
to
improve
the
lighting
on
the
courts
and
by
improve
it's
upgrading.
The
fixtures
to
LEDs
so
they're,
more
efficient,
but
also
more
contemporary
fixtures
can
be
controlled
better
to
have
less
light
pollution.
F
We
also
were
looking
at
the
perimeter
of
the
park,
the
fencing,
the
perimeter
walls
and
all
the
entrances.
There's
five
entrances
to
the
park,
they're
all
a
little
different
in
their
style.
Some
are
low-key.
Some
are
more
obvious
that
it's
a
entrance
to
the
park,
but
we
wanted
to
look
at
the
perimeter
in
general,
each
one
of
the
entrances
we
had
a
rendering
for
because
we
had
specific
recommendations.
This
is
at
Webley
Street
next
to
the
Jackson
Man,
where
right
now,
that's
a
little
bit
open
and
we
thought
well.
F
Each
entrance
should
really
have
a
character
and
consistency
of
a
stone
wall
and
the
pillars
in
the
identification.
But
then
we
want
to
control
vehicular
access
with
a
gate
and
then
the
the
pylons
are
part
of
the
identification
of
each
one
of
these
entrances
at
Emory
Street.
Again,
instead
of
the
steel
bollards,
we
wanted
to
extend
that
vocabulary
of
the
stone
wall
and
the
pillars
and
that
Gordon
Street
I
mentioned
changing
the
alignment
of
the
past.
F
There's
a
small
entrance
at
Alston
street
that
could
be
enlarged
and
we've
looked
at
it
with
the
Boston
Parks
arborist
to
see
if
what
it
would
take
for
them
to
have
access
with
free
bucket
trucks
and
equipment
used
for
tree
work.
F
And
then
the
entrance
on
the
other
end
of
Alston
Street
having
been
able
to
control
access
there
as
well
we'd
be
removing
the
Cobblestone,
so
it
would
be
accessible
and
we'd
actually
take
the
walkway
and
move
it
a
little
further
away
from
the
butter.
There.
F
F
Stationary
equipment
like
pull
up
here
at
number,
two
sit-ups
at
number:
three,
the
quartz
could
be
used
when
they're
not
being
used.
Otherwise
it's
a
flexible
flat
surface.
There
could
be
a
couple
woodwind
stations
that
might
be
complementary
to
the
sit-up
and
pull-up
bars,
and
then
a
lot
of
people
use
the
Steep
Hill,
the
extreme
Hill
as
a
way
of
exercise.
F
We
did
talk
about
dog
park
quite
a
bit
at
our
meetings.
We,
as
a
group
talked
about
a
number
of
different
potential
locations
and
the
recommended
location
is
behind
the
Little
League
backstop
and
it
couldn't
this
actually
could
this
shape
in
Orange
is
what
I'm
talking
about
it
could
grow
even
a
little
bit
more
where
that
mound
is
today,
but
that
would
be
a
fenced-in
dog
park
that
would
be
separate
from
the
Little
League
baseball.
H
F
F
F
Wanted
to
explain
what
we
think
are
the
high
priority
items
and
what
would
be
included
in
the
scope,
starting
with
scope.
Item
number
one:
that's
the
entrances
entrances
so
I
mentioned
the
five
entrances
pointing
to
those
now
they're
identified
with
number
one
that
would
make
them
accessible,
more
legible
and
we
could
control
vehicles
but
allow
maintenance,
vehicles
or
emergency
vehicles
in
the
pathway
from
Alston
down
to
Gordon
Street.
F
We
would
make
the
accessibility
improvements,
improve
the
drainage,
make
it
consistent
width
that
really
supports
the
use
and
the
maintenance
that
is
required,
that
dog
park
that
I
mentioned
behind
the
backstop
and
then
hardening
the
pathway
through
the
little
ones,
and
it
would
also
include
tree
work,
which
is
harder
to
show
on
a
plan
like
this.
But
as
representative
Honan
mentioned,
there
are
a
lot
there's
a
lot
of
tree
work
to
be
done
here
and
we
looked
at
it
with
the
Boston,
Parks,
arborist
and
agreed.
F
So
as
part
of
this
project,
the
design
part
of
the
project
we're
going
to
have
a
tree
inventory
done
by
a
certified
Arborist.
So
we
really
know
what
work
needs
to
be
done
and
can
prioritize
that
I
have
some
existing
condition
photos
here.
If
you
all
know
this
park,
you
probably
don't
need
the
photos,
but
I
think.
Sometimes
these
are
helpful
to
spur
on
conversation
and
get
feedback.
F
The
first
top
five
images
are
the
ones
of
the
entrances
I
had
talked
about
so
at
Webley
Street.
There
is
no
stone
wall
there
today,
like
the
the
rendering
suggests,
but
we
could
clean
this
up
a
bit
improve
the
sidewalk,
have
an
access
gate
same
with
Emery
I
mentioned
that
Gordon
we
could
relocate
the
the
entrance
and
have
that
accessible
path
and
I
showed
you,
the
Alston
renderings.
F
We
know
there's
some
drainage
issues,
water
coming
down
the
hill,
which
we
can
address,
there's
condition
issues
with
the
concrete
pavement
and
width
and
we'll
look
at
lighting
as
well,
and
then
the
Woodland
path
I
mentioned
to
be
hardened
is
this
is
a
photo
that
represents
that
mentioned
lighting,
and
what
we're
talking
about
or
suggesting
for
lighting
in
Phase
One
is
in
conjunction
with
the
realigned
path
closer
to
Gordon
and
I.
Think
we'd
want
feedback
on
lighting
that
path
through
the
woodlands,
from
Allston
to
Gordon
Street
those
lighting
improvements
to
the
Courtyard.
F
The
courts
is
not
included
in
phase
one.
Some
photos
night
photos
mainly
here
just
to
remind
people
of
the
character.
We
have
a
variety
of
Lights
Out,
There,
generally
they're.
More
of
these
concrete
poles
with
the
LED
light
fixture
on
them.
The
lighting
on
the
main
path
is
pretty
good.
F
F
You
know
if
you
were
heading
to
the
playground
or
if
you
were
in
The
Woodlands.
You
would
certainly
notice
that
there's
no
lighting
there
so
then
back
in
terms
of
a
recap
to
where
we
are
we're
at
this
red
dot.
Community
meeting
number
one:
we've
got
a
long
time
between
now
and
when
we
go
out
to
bid
so
plenty
of
time
for
feedback
and
opportunity
for
you
all
to
weigh
in
on
the
scope
of
this
project.
So
thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
Kyle.
That
was
very
helpful
and
we
are
just
if
you
guys
want
to
spend
a
little
bit
more
time
with
the
comprehensive
plan.
We
are
making
spinal
edits
on
the
executive
summary
right
now
and
that
will
be
posted
to
our
project
page
within
the
next
week
or
two.
So
when
I
send
out
a
follow-up
email
for
this
meeting,
I
can
send
you
guys
a
link
for
that,
but
anyway,
I
wanted
to
open
it
up
for
conversation.
A
We're
just
gonna
keep
this
plan
here.
If
anybody
wants
to
refer
to
it,
there
was
a
little
bit
of
chat
going
on
during
the
presentation
that
I
think
some
of
this
has
been
resolved.
The
question
about
what
Woodland
exercise
is
and
some
comments
about,
the
lighting
solar
lights.
A
So
you
know
if
we
want
to
shift
over
into
people
raising
their
hands.
I
think
that's
great.
C
Great
so
I
see,
Bob
pessic
has
his
hand
raised,
you
may
now
unmute
and
the
floor
is
yours.
I
Lived
around
Rambler,
Parks
ringer,
Park
Ram
was
in
the
Fenway
which
I
worked
on
since
1981.
So
thank
you
for
moving
forward
with
some
long-awaited
and
long
overdue.
I
must
say
improvements
you
mentioned
Whiting,
the
sidewalks,
so
park
Vehicles
would
have
access
I
assume
you
know
they
already
do
have
access.
We
sit
on
our
porch
and
watch
them
go
over
the
sidewalks
which
they
ruin
and
crack
up
within
a
year,
and
they
are
doing
it
already.
So
the
question
I
guess
is
a
little
Technical
and
not
a
sidewalk
engineer.
I
But
how
are
you
going
to
build
a
sidewalk,
or
will
you
build
a
sidewalk
or
pathway
that
the
trucks
don't
wreck
wide
is
good,
but
I,
don't
know
how
thick
you
have
to
go.
Those
are
big
vehicles
and
I
would
like
to
add.
The
reason
they
go
over
to
the
Gordon
Street
entrance
is
there's
one
trash
can
there
years
ago,
when
I
was
still
with
Parks
I
was
asked
by
people
that
lived
around
here.
Couldn't
they
just
stop
on
Gordon
and
empty
one
trash
cut,
can't
do
it
so
anyway.
I
That's
that
point,
two
things
lights
on
the
court.
Why
would
you
have
lights
there?
There
are
no
leagues
playing
they're,
not
permitted,
and
we've
been
with
this
with
the
former
commissioner
Park
commissioner
and
elected
officials
to
keep
the
lights
off
in
fact,
remove
them
and
I
like
to
add
I
talked
to
the
electrician
about
two
years
ago.
They
restored
their
energy,
sucking
lights.
That
are
there
now
and
he
said
they
contracted
me,
but
it's
a
waste
of
money.
This
technology
is
way
behind
and
they
haven't
been
turned
on.
I
I
I
thought
this
was
originally
a
master
plan,
but
I
have
not
seen
that
term
used
tonight.
So
is
it
no
longer
a
master
plan,
because
my
question
is:
where
is
the
master
plan
that
we're
working
off
of
and
finally
in
general
rain
Gardens?
Have
you
looked
at
rain
Gardens
in
areas
where
there's
runoff
erosion
from
rain
and
stuff
like
that?
They
can
have
nice
plantings,
they're
in
front
of
the
Jackson
Man
school
they're
behind
the
Murray
Malone
park
at
the
honor,
and
also
Library
they're.
I
A
Thank
you,
Bob
I'm
gonna.
Try
just
to
take
a
stab
at
a
few
of
your
comments.
We
can
make
clear
Pathways
that
are
intended
for
maintenance
with
vehicular
grade
concrete,
so
that's
thicker
wider,
so
that
they're
not
cracking
the
edges
and
just
trying
to
make
it
really
clear
where
they're
supposed
to
go.
We
would
locate
trash
bins
and
Barrels
in
those
locations
so
that
they
don't
have
to
drive
all
over
creation.
A
I
understand
that
that
is
an
ongoing
issue
with
a
lot
of
our
perks,
but
we're
going
to
try
and
design
to
control
it
as
much
as
we
can
lights
on
the
court.
I
think
that
that's
something
that
we
can
discuss
later
when
it
comes
to
that
portion
of
the
design
but
I
think
the
idea
is,
if
we
used
LEDs,
they
would
use
less
electricity.
They
have
them
now
on
timers
with
hoods
so
that
the
light
at
night
is
not
shining
into
I
assume
your
living
room.
A
If
you
live
right
nearby,
a
dog
park
I
believe
that
was
something
that
came
out
pretty
clearly
from
the
community
process
for
the
comprehensive
plan
which
previously
comprehensive
plans
were
referred
to
as
Master
plans.
I
may
stumble
and
refer
to
it
as
the
master
plan.
I.
Think
I
did
in
fact
in
the
meeting
where
I
invited
everybody
to
this
meeting
so
that
one's
on
me.
A
But
the
terminology
now
is
comprehensive
plan.
It
includes
more
I,
don't
know
it's
more
expansive,
I
guess
broader
rain
Gardens.
We
would
love
to
do
that
and
there
is
further
funding
now
as
far
as
green
infrastructure
goes
throughout
our
parks
and
City
Kate
England
has
been
terrific
trying
to
advocate
for
things
like
this
and
securing
maintenance
funding,
which
is
a
huge
important
element
of
that,
because
our
guys
in
our
maintenance
crew
are
flat
out
just
picking
up
trash
and
dumping
trash
barrels.
A
So
the
idea
of
asking
them
to
weed
a
rain
Garden
is
challenging
would
run
into
that
challenge
in
the
past
in
a
number
of
other
perks.
So
now
that
we
have
the
prospect
things
haven't
been
set
up
yet,
but
we're
hopeful
that
we
can
include
things
like
this
in
this
park.
With
this
new
system
going
forward,
so
I'll
be
quiet
and
see
the
stage
two.
Whoever
wants
to
go
next,
I
think
Rosie
Hamlin.
Maybe
you
raised
her
hand
next.
C
All
right
we'll
jump
over
now
to
Rosie
hanland,
then
we
can
go
Theresa
and
then
Andrew
and
then
Kyle.
That's
just
the
order
in
which
I
see
everyone's
hand
raised
on
the
screen.
Rosie
the
floor
is
now
yours
sure.
K
Thank
you
and
thank
you
B
and
the
entire
team.
This
is
terrific,
very
excited
to
see
this
happening.
I
love
the
idea
of
the
dog
park,
I
think
it's
so
necessary.
So
thank
you
for
including
that
I
just
wanted
to
just
throw
out.
We
had
a
little
discussion
about
the
possibility
or
just
the
just
to
bring
discussion
out
on
Community
gardening.
A
Community
gardening
is
something
that
the
parks
department
is
like
a
lot
of
interpersonal
elements
to
it
where
it's
like.
Who
gets
to
take
what
plot
and
how
long
you
know
if
you
get
mad
at
something
with
someone's
planted,
we
have
a
really
hard
time
managing
it.
So
we
look
to
any
kind
of
community
group
that
is
coalescing
doesn't
have
to
be
already
formed.
But
if
we
get
a
good,
staunch
group
of
people
who
really
want
to
do
community
gardens,
we
can
try
and
figure
out
a
location.
A
It
is
not
a
big
budget
item
right.
Community
Gardens
don't
require
significant
Paving
electrical
drainage.
Etc
like
a
water
hookup
is
great
right,
but
if
that
is
something
that
emerges
as
like
a
very
supported
element,
that
is
something
that
we
could
certainly
look
at.
So
thanks
for
bringing
it
up,
I
don't
know
if
you
had
other.
K
Thoughts
part
is
that
the
management
of
it
is
enormous,
enormous
and
I
know
the
community
center
is
going
to
be
somewhere
where
we're
hoping
that
is
close
here,
but
the
the
management
of
it
yeah
is
the
big
part
and
and
when
we
were
doing
the
process
of
of
putting
the
community
Central,
we
just
had
our
surveys
go
out.
Community
gardening
was
a
big
deal
and
it's
it's
I
I
love
the
concept.
I
I,
shiver
too,
at
the
thought
of
you
know,
management
of
it.
K
So
there's
some
successful
Gardens
that
they're
friends
of
that
manage
it.
So
that's
just
something
that
we
as
a
community
might
want
to
look
at
and-
and
maybe
maybe
it
could
happen-
maybe
you
couldn't
but
I
think
it's
something
that
we
should
just
put
out
there
and
thank
you
thanks.
G
Thanks
hear
me
now
we
can
hear
you
great
thanks.
I
wanted
to
say
that
I'm
very
happy
to
hear
about
the
dog
park.
First
of
all,
I'm
in
a
butter
living
on
Emery,
Road
and
I
had
a
question
about
some
of
the
sections
of
fence.
I
know
in
the
beginning
of
the
meeting
someone
mentioned
replacing
fencing,
so
the
fencing
in
several
sections
of
the
park
is
in
very,
very
poor
condition.
I
was
wondering
if
someone
could
talk
about
what
the
plans
are
for
addressing
that.
A
I,
don't
have
a
specific
understanding
of
the
all
of
the
perimeter,
so
if
Kyle
wants
to
weigh
in
on
that,
we
can
what
often
happens
with
our
perimeter.
Let
me
just
say
this
quickly
is
that
you
get
like
trees
growing
into
fences.
A
Fences
are
on
property
lines
and
sometimes
the
trees
and
the
fences
can
be
challenging,
and
so
it
can
depend
on
budget
right.
How
much
money
do
you
want
to
spend
on
a
property
fence?
A
But
if
there
is
money
in
the
budget-
and
there
are
certain
areas
that
it
would
be
very
beneficial
to
do
it,
we
can
absolutely
thank
you
for
raising
that.
If
Kyle,
you
want
to
elaborate
on
the
yeah.
F
I,
don't
have
too
much
to
add
I
think
as
part
of
our
assessment
that
we're
doing
now
we're
going
to
look
at
the
entire
perimeter
of
the
park
and
that
will
include
the
fencing
so
we'll
note
the
condition
the
materials
the
height
and
we'll.
Also,
we
have
a
property
line
survey
so
we'll
know
if
it's
on
Boston,
Park's
property
or
not
and
then
we'll
be
able
to
come
back
and
make
recommendations
about
what
fencing
improvements
are
needed.
C
Thank
you,
Teresa
Andrew
and
then
Kyle
and
then
Jill
and
just
going
based
off
the
order.
I
see
on
my
screen.
J
Two
questions:
the
Little
League
field:
are
we
putting
a
fence
around
that.
A
The
Little
League
field
was
that
what
you
said?
Yes,
we
would
not
be
doing
renovations
to
the
Little
League
field
at
this
point
and
it
might
make
sense
to
remove
some
of
the
fencing
I
think
once
we
put
in
a
dog
park,
that
area
would
be
intended
for
off-leash
dog
use,
and
we
understand
that
that's
been
a
challenge
for
the
lawn
maintenance
within
the
Little.
A
League
area
is
dogs
using
that,
so
we
would
look
to
really
try
and
emphasize
the
dog
area
and
potentially
removing
portions
of
the
Little
League
sense
that
aren't
necessary
for
little
league
use
necessarily
like
wow.
J
A
We
can
certain
certainly
coordinate
with
I,
think
PD
and
Emergency
Services.
If
the
one
that's
there
now
doesn't
work
that
is
concerning,
and
so
we
could
I'm
not
sure
exactly
how
that
works.
As
far
as
like
who
funds
what
but
definitely
look
into
it,
and
thank
you
for
bringing
it
for
our
attention.
A
We
can
definitely
do
that.
A
constituent
approached
me
over
email
a
little
while
ago,
asking
about
a
water
fountain
by
the
courts,
and
it's
definitely
something
that
we're
looking
into
with
the
caveat
that
like
if
there
are
Court
repairs
that
happen,
it
may
make
sense
to
address
that
package
comprehensively.
A
But
if
there
are
locations
throughout
the
park
where
it's
a
big
Park
people
get
tired,
the
temperatures
are
going
up,
so
a
water
fountain
or
two
or
three
it
makes
sense.
So
if
that's
the
need
that
you
perceive
having
been
out
there.
J
A
J
L
Hey
guys,
so
there
is
a
water
fountain
up
by
the
kid
Park
already,
but
that's
not
what
I
want
to
say
the
LED
or
not
the
led,
the
solar
lights
on
the
path
from
Emory
to
Austin
Street,
I
kind
of
already
touched
on
it
in
the
in
the
chat.
But
if
we're
gonna
do
more
Lighting
in
the
park,
it's
just
a
waste
of
money
to
use
the
that
style
because,
like
I
said,
there's
not
enough
light
getting
to
the
ones
that
are
already
there
and
the
ones
that
do
get
the
light.
L
They
only
stay
on
for
15-20
minutes.
So
if
there's
a
way
to
a
fix
them
or
trim
the
trees
in
a
way
where
they
get
more
sun
I'll
put
a
bullet
in
that
because
it's
just
a
huge
waste
of
money.
Those
things
are
super
expensive,
so
yeah,
that's
something
to
think
about
for
the
lighting.
If
you're
going
to
do
down
Gordon,
if
you
guys
decide
to
do
that,
foreign.
L
To
the
drainage
from
the
the
quartz
into
the
I
think
you
have
it
listed
as
a
gathering
area
that
circle
like
years
ago,
was
full
grass
and
it's
completely
eroded
away.
I
I,
don't
know
if
you
guys
would
consider
turfing
just
that
Circle,
but
I
know
you
guys
have
redone
or
I,
don't
know
if
it's
you
guys,
but
someone
has
re
kind
of
graveled
the
area
around
it
there's
a
path
between
the
Gathering
Circle
and
the
ball
field.
That
has
like
a
foot
deep
ankle,
break
area
there.
L
A
Yes,
I
understand
that
there
used
to
be
one
there
and
I
think
our
our
treatment
of
that
space
would
probably
happen
at
a
later
phase,
with
the
exception
of
ankle
breaking
areas,
because
that
doesn't
sound
like
a
condition.
We
want
to
ignore.
H
A
Not
a
great
moment
in
Boston
for
new
Synthetic
Turf
projects,
so
we
probably
wouldn't
be
able
to
do
that
in
the
future,
but
definitely
good
to
understand
that
you
guys
use
the
space
we
want
to
make
it
as
safe
as
possible.
A
C
All
right,
thank
you,
Kyle
I'll
go
to
Jill,
then
Wendy,
then
Harrison
and
then
Andrew
I'll
come
back
on
to
repeat
the
order.
But
Jill
the
floor
is
yours.
You
can
now
unmute.
N
Hello,
this
is
actually
case
founder
pool
a
DLC
arrive
beside
me.
We
are
very
excited
to
see
the
plan
in
the
current
state.
I
have
to
say
we're
very
happy
with
it
love
the
presence
of
the
dog
park.
There
I
think
that
would
do
you
know
that
would
serve
the
community
well
in
both
ways
for
the
dog
owners,
but
also
for
the
people
who
would
like
to
use
the
field,
and
we
would
not
have
any
issues
there.
N
I
think
removing
some
of
the
fencing
around
the
field
also
makes
a
lot
of
sense.
Then
I
just
want
to
point
out.
One
thing
is
that
there
is
a
drainage
issue
right
behind
the
school
and
the
field.
N
It
floods
there
with
heavy
rain
and
as
the
person
previously
mentioned,
there
is
indeed
sort
of
a
a
small
river
running
from
the
hill
towards
the
field
that
that
makes
that
Gap
right
behind
that
Gathering
area,
so
yeah
I
think
drainage
Solutions
were
mentioned,
but
it
would
be
good
to
include
those
areas.
A
Thank
you.
That's
very
helpful.
I
mean
these
are
the
things
that,
like
you,
guys
living
in
the
area
and
visiting
the
park,
often
it's
it's
so
helpful
to
hear
these
perspectives,
because,
after
a
big
rain,
you
know
we
can't
run
out
and
check
our
Parks
all
the
time
to
sort
of
see
where
these
Tendencies
happen.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
these
boots
on
the
ground
perspectives.
C
M
I
I
do
thank
you
for
this
meeting.
I
do
also
have
a
couple
of
different
items.
I
had
put
in
the
chat
a
question
about
lighting,
it
looks
like
they're.
The
only
path
that
will
be
lighted
or
lit
is
on
Gordon
Street
and
when
you
started
the
discussion,
you
kind
of
glossed
over
the
lighting
issues.
Other
people
put
in
the
chat
that
some
lights
are
broken,
I
assume
those
will
be
fixed,
but
I'm
wondering
if
the
decision
is
made
to
only
put
lighting
along
the
Gordon
Street
Path.
That's
my
first
question.
A
So
I
think
we
would,
we
would
certainly
be
addressing
any
repairs
on
lights.
Looking
at
the
solar
lights
to
see,
you
know,
do
they
make
sense?
Do
they?
You
know
cost
more
as
far
as
maintenance
goes,
do
they
make
sense
to
be
replaced,
I
mean
I
know
it
was
sort
of
a
labor
of
love
to
have
them
installed
in
the
first
place,
so
we'd
want
to
tread
lightly
there,
but
I
think
the
idea
is
that
we
would
be
including
lights
along
Pathways.
That
feel
like
there's
a
security
issue.
A
I
think
really.
The
the
real
question
in
our
minds
is
the
the
main
Woodland
path,
but
you're
asking
along
Gordon
Street.
Is
that
what
you're,
referring
to
as
the
main
Woodland
path
or
no.
M
F
F
On
the
main
path
here
and
the
light
levels
from
our
observation
have
been
good:
minus
the
broken
lights.
But
if
there's
dark
spots
that
you're
aware
of
please
let
us
know.
M
Okay,
I'm
still
concerned
about
the
fact
that
there's
no
other
lighting
in
the
plan
that
I'm
looking
at
there's
no
other
additional
lighting,
so
I
would
request
to
put
that
as
a
as
a
request
to
have
more
lighting.
M
A
Real
Horticultural
Landscaping
is
not
in
our
plans.
I
think
that
the
idea
of
infiltration
areas
rain
Gardens
there
may
be
additional
funding
available
from
the
city
for
to
support
those
kinds
of
things.
A
But
as
far
as
I
mean
it,
it
kills
me
to
say
it
because
I
know
that,
like
we
want
to
be
outside
in
the
park,
you
want
the
like
green
Lush,
like
the
variation
and
textures
and
form
that
that
shrubs
provide
and
perennials
and
all
those
wonderful
things.
But
what
we
see
time
and
time
again
is
when
we
install
areas
of
intensity.
As
far
as
you
know,
lots
of
plantings
it
takes
about
a
year,
maybe
two
for
them
to
get
pretty
overwhelmed
by
weeds.
A
Like
our
guys,
just
don't
have
the
time
and
in
some
cases
you
know,
there's
an
educational
curve
there,
where
you're
like
okay.
This
is
you
know,
a
shrub
versus
a
weed
isn't
always
readily
apparent
to
some
people.
So
it's
a
challenge
so
and
I
think.
As
far
as
long-term
improvements,
it
will
benefit
the
park
more.
A
Maybe
if
we
have
some
key
areas,
maybe
by
the
entrances,
where
we
have
some
nice
plantings,
we
can
do
that,
but
I
think
Greening
of
the
park
we're
really
going
to
lean
heavily
on
tree
work,
because
we
understand
that's
been
something
that
has
been
put
off
for
quite
some
time,
so
pruning
for
the
health
of
trees
pruning
to
get
a
lot
of
the
Dead
wood
out
there.
While
we
went
on
our
sidewalk,
we
witnessed
a
branch
come
down,
you
know,
so
it
was
really
like
live
action
like
we
need.
A
M
Right
in
my
list,
thank
you
for
that.
I
understand
the
rationale
you're
describing,
but
what
you're
also
describing
is
that
it
seems
like
it's
not
getting,
and
other
people
have
alluded
to
this
enough
maintenance
on
a
regular
basis,
so
that
somebody's
going
through
the
park
every
what
years
six
months
season
to
look
for
things
like
branches
that
are
vulnerable
and
so
on,
I'm
wondering
if
there
is
a
schedule
for
maintenance
or
if
there
will
be
one.
A
I
mean
there
is
the
maintenance
that
our
Parks
guides
generally
do
is
you
know
trash
you
know,
picking
up
of
litter
dumping
of
trash
barrels
fixing
graffiti,
you
know
mowing
the
Lawns.
These
very
sort
of
big
picture
things
and
routine
maintenance
of
tree
canopy
is
is
not
something
that
you
know.
We
we
have
too
many
trees
really
for
the
staff
that
we
have.
A
We
can't
walk
through
all
the
parks,
all
the
time
and
be
looking
around,
because
we're
really
constantly
responding
to
3-1-1
calls
and
so
that,
even
though
it
feels
like
you
know,
throwing
your
complaint
out
into
like
no
man's
land,
great
3-1-1,
thanks
for
the
help.
You
know
it
actually
does
get
right
into
a
queue
and
it
gets
assessed
quickly
and
if
it
is
something
that's
determined
to
be
a
danger,
it
does
get
fixed
pretty
fast.
We
have
new
people
that
have
been
hired,
so
we
now
have
a
larger
arborist
team.
A
That's
responding
to
these
things,
but
as
far
as
an
annual
review,
we
we
don't
that.
Doesn't
that
doesn't
really
happen?
It's
more
of
like
if
you
see
something
that's
concerning,
please
report
it
and
we
will
try
and
address
it,
but
so
this
is
what
we're
trying
to
do
with
this
project
is
like
really
set
things
up
in
a
way,
so
that
success
will
be.
You
know
the
health
of
trees.
A
Will
you
know,
trees
will
be
benefited
and
we
won't
have
as
many
concerns
going
forward
and
it's
you
know
we
like
to
think
that
work
will
be
done
more
often
than
every
Capital
project,
because
that
can
be
like
10
to
15
years,
but
we
really
respond
immediately
to
immediate
requests.
That's
mostly
how
it's
done.
C
Thank
you.
I
just
asked
that
we
be
conscious
of
the
time
we
have
quite
a
few
folks
with
their
hands
raised
so
I'm
now
going
to
jump
over
to
Harrison,
Andrew
Bob
and
then
Grace
I'll
come
back
and
revisit
the
order.
But
again,
let's
please
try
and
keep
our
time
speaking
to
a
minimum.
Maybe
two
minutes
a
maximum
of
two
minutes.
Excuse
me:
Harrison.
The
floor
is
yours.
O
O
Oh
okay,
I
just
got
a
weird
timer
or
something
yeah
I
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
you
know
a
group
of
30
or
so
individuals
who
have
organized
and
have
been
playing
basketball
at
the
the
ringer
Park
Courts
for
a
few
years
now.
So
my
concerns
lie
there
I'm
just
curious
to
hear
if
you
guys
could
clarify
what
are
the
proposed
changes
to
the
courts.
I
see
here
on
the
slide
we
have
now,
there
are
some
proposed
plans
for
lights.
Are
those
going
to
be
lights
on
the
pathways
to
the
course?
O
Are
those
going
to
be
lights
that
will
provide
lighting
to
the
the
basketball
hoops
themselves
and,
if
there's
any
other
Renovations
planned
for
this
in
this
phase,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I'm
understanding
correctly.
Thank
you.
F
No,
so
to
answer
the
question
about
the
courts,
the
there's
no
scope
for
improvements
to
the
courts
in
this
phase,
one
project
so
no
resurfacing,
no
lighting
the
what
the
comprehensive
plan
included
was
yes
to
resurface
at
some
point
and
to
consider
upgrading
the
lights
to
LED
and
better
shielding,
but,
like
I
said,
that's
not
in.
D
O
Okay,
thanks
Kyle
I,
think
I
caught
the
most
of
that
and
I
just
wanted
to
in
you
know
in
the
in
that
case,
I
do
want
to
reinforce
that
if
we
could
get
a
water
fountain
over
there,
that's
closer
to
the
courts
themselves,
B
I
know
we
spoke
over
email.
C
J
Hi
there
just
another
quick
question:
have
you
guys
talked
with
the
West
End
house
about
any
of
these
improvements.
A
Yeah
I
spoke
with
Andrea
Howard
a
couple
of
days
ago.
She's
the
executive
director
there
and
I
think
they
were
also
active
participants
during
the
initial
discussion
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
So
thanks
for
bringing
that
up,
though,.
A
Other
community
members
that
you
think
should
be
involved
for
always
eager
to
hear
okay.
J
Next
I
got
one
more
two
more
questions.
Trash
cans.
Are
we
planning
on
putting
any
trash
cans
up
there,
because
there's
only.
B
A
J
The
city
yeah,
so
the
maintenance,
as
I
can
say,
the
maintenance
needs
to
be
better
because
I
do
put
three
one
ones
in,
but
I
had
to
call
both
my
city
councilors
to
get
the
thing
moved
and
I
don't
want
to
keep
doing
that
and
I
know.
Liz
is
here
so
Liz
can
probably
testify
to
that.
One
too.
Thank
you.
I
Thank
you.
This
goes
back
to
the
circle
at
the
Emory
Road
entrance.
The
last
time
the
ringer
Park
was
completely
redone,
was
about
1988
or
so
Ray
Flynn
was
mayor.
So
I'm
glad
this
is
going
forward
even
piecemeal,
but
the
circle.
I
The
gentleman
from
the
Vikings
didn't
speak
to
this,
but
they
are
the
ones
that
have
destroyed
the
grass
there.
They
come
every
Saturday,
they're,
very
active
physically
and
and
they
so
they
killed
the
grass
off.
My
question
is:
are
the
Vikings
permitted
in
ringer
Park,
and
should
they
have
a
permit
because
they
do
take
over
a
large
section
of
the
park
on
every
Saturday?
Sometimes
it's
very
busy
you
kind
of
have
to
walk
around
them
because
they're
doing
their
stuff.
I
A
I,
don't
think
we
issue
permits
for
Vikings
necessarily,
but
I
can
definitely
check
with
our
permitting
group.
I
understand
that
it's
a
concern,
but
you
know
any
place
that
experiences
intense
use,
especially
lawn.
You
know,
as
we've
seen
with
the
dogs
using
the
Little
League
area,
it's
a
challenge
so
I
think
when
we
get
to
a
renovation
of
that
area,
it
may
make
more
sense
to
do
something:
that's
a
little
bit
harder,
but
when
we
will
cross
that
bridge
when
we
come
to
it.
So
thanks
for
that
perspective,
thank.
C
I
Also
I
want
to
ask:
can
I
ask
another
quick
question:
Who
Would
maintain
the
dog
park.
A
That
is
something
where
we
look
to
partner
with
Community
groups
that
use
the
dog
areas
to
really
sort
of
set
the
tone-
and
let
us
know
when
animal
control
needs
to
be
involved.
It's
really
sort
of
a
partnership
that
we
look
for.
A
A
The
funds
are
spare
time
to
have
these
groups
where
they
can
contribute
a
lot
of
time
and
energy,
so
you
know,
but
we
do
look
to
have
a
fairly
clear
group
of
people
who
plan
on
using
it
who
can
help
us
sort
of
keep
eyes
on
the
ground
and
really
set
the
tone
for
for
good
citizenship.
I
think
we've
had
a
lot
of
good
experiences
with
dog
perks.
As
far
as
the
maintenance
goes
some
challenges
as
well.
C
Thank
you,
B.
Thank
you.
Bob.
We
have
a
number
of
hands
raised
still,
so
I
still
would
like
to
ask
that
we
keep
our
comments
or
questions
brief.
Just
the
sake
of
time,
I'm
gonna
go
now
to
Grace,
followed
by
Brandon
and
then
Barbara.
H
Hi,
thank
you.
I
just
have
a
few
things
so
in
at
the
dirt
entrance
on
the
Austin
side,
especially
because
that's
where
we'll
see
a
lot
of
litter
happening
and
then
a
potential
idea
of
distributing
some
of
the
burden
of
maintaining
Gardens
I
guess
just
me
specifically
like
I,
would
be
willing
to.
You
know,
help
with
weeding
or
something.
If
that
you
know
was
what
was
stopping
us
from
having
like
more
plants
and
stuff
and
then
my
third
thing
is
just
floating
the
idea
in
case.
H
Other
people
felt
this
way
that
it
could.
There
is
a
benefit
to
having
the
path
stay
as
a
dirt
path.
Just
for
people
with
like
joint
issues
which
is
like
you
know,
older
people,
but
also
like
I,
have
inflammatory
issues
so
like
I
love
that
derp
that
dirt
path,
but
I
know
that
also
makes
it
less
accessible
by
just
wanting
to
float
that
your
plan
that
seed
think
it
yeah.
A
P
Hey
everyone
I've,
been
the
camera
off
I've,
been
working
nice
to
see
a
bunch
of
old
friends
here.
I
have
a
couple
things:
a
couple
thoughts,
I'm,
really
I
gotta
say
that
I'm
really
happy.
This
is
happening
really
happening.
This
is
moving
forward,
I'm
a
resident
down
on
Quint,
so
I'm
right
around
the
corner
from
the
park
and
go
there
every
day.
P
I
I
will
say
that
I
see
people
all
the
time,
walking
down
that
Wooded
Path
at
night
and
I.
Think
if
we're
using
this
as
an
opportunity
to
create
light,
we
should
be
putting
light
into
dark
spaces
because
whether
or
not
we
like
it
or
not,
people
are
walking
through
that
all
the
time
to
cut
through
Gordon
to
Alston
street.
It's
just
a
matter
of
fact:
I
either
go
through
the
parking
lot
or
they
go
through
a
wooded
area.
It
just
happens,
I
mean
I,
don't
I.
It.
P
I
would
like
to
put
on
the
record
that
I'd
like
to
see
a
sharp,
slow,
a
Sharps
collection
Spot
somewhere
in
the
park,
whether
again,
whether
we
like
it
or
not,
people
are
using
intervenous
drugs
in
all
parks
across
the
city
and
right
now,
they're
being
left
on
the
ground,
I've
found
them
in
ringer
Park
and
there's
no
place
to
dispose
of
them,
with
the
exception
of
putting
them
in
some
kind
of
container
and
then
putting
that
container
in
the
into
a
trash
can
and
then
a
trash
can
gets
picked
by
a
human
being.
P
So
again
like
it
or
not
we're
trying
to
create
New
Uses
of
this
park
and
and
create
this,
and
we
should
have
more
water.
We
should
have
more
trash
cans.
We
should
have
more
light,
obviously
be
respectful
of
the
neighborhood
and
Neighbors
in
and
around
the
park,
but
I
think
it's
really
important
to
think
of
Public
Safety
First,
because
whether
or
not
we
like
things
that
are
happening
in
our
Parks,
we
want
to
make
sure
all
people
are
safe
in
and
around
that
Park,
especially.
P
And
I
mean
my
dog
was
running
around
and
almost
stepped
on
a
needle
the
other
day.
So
again,
I
don't
like
people
using
intervenience
drugs
in
the
park
that
I
hang
out
every
day,
but
it
is
happening,
and
so
we
need
to
have
a
place
for
those
those
recept
those
drug
use
things
to
be
put
into
safety.
So
that's
my
thought
and
also
I
think
that
we
do
need
that
the
the
emergency
button
to
be
fixed,
but
people
keep
pulling
it
I.
C
B
Several
years
ago,
I
participated
in
a
spring
cleanup,
bringer
Park
and
the
little
wooded
cops
on
your
diagram
here
to
the
left
of
the
West
End
house
and
behind
the
West
End
house.
Their
comment
at
that
time
was
the
forest
is
dying.
Yet
they
sent
out
teams
of
people
to
rake
the
forest
which
of
course,
will
kill
a
forest
because
nothing
will
grow
back
up.
If
you
rake
it
all
up,
they
felt
they
had
a
rake
to
prevent
fires.
J
B
The
other
thing
has
for
many
many
years
as
it
was
a
homeless
Camp
up
there
and
even
easily
30
20
to
30
years
ago.
That
was
needle
Park
up
there
and
I'm
sure
needles
are
still
coming
to
the
surface.
So
I
think
the
point
that
Brandon
made
in
regards
to
having
a
sharp
box
is
a
good
idea,
but
to
have
a
Sharps
clean
up
in
that
area
would
be
wonderful.
Grace
I'm
gladly
joined
you
to
depart
me
is
that
foreign.
B
A
Not
the
little
wooded
and
there's
no
Collective
Forest,
that's
dying,
so
I
don't
mean
to
sound
alarm
Bells
where
there
shouldn't
be
any,
but
it's
just
the
the
large
wooded
area
that
the
Woodland
path,
the
main
path
from
Austin
sort
of
cuts
through
I,
don't
know
Kyle.
If
you
can
just
drawer
where
I'm
talking
about
yeah
there,
we
go
that
that
forested
area,
it's
partially
because
of
the
slope
partially,
because
the
opening
in
the
gate
isn't
large
enough
for
a
tree
truck
to
get
through
there.
A
There
are
a
number
of
reasons
why
it's
not.
B
B
B
A
Thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
your
input
and
I
think
that
both
you
and
Brandon
racing
great
points
and
a
Sharps
container.
We
can
definitely
do
that.
That's
an
easy
one
and
it
seems
like
it
would
save
a
lot
of
people
a
lot
of
challenging
situations,
cleaning
up
and
observing
the
needles
and
everything.
So
you
want
to
go
to
the
next
person.
C
Yes,
I
just
want
to
ensure
that
anyone
who
hasn't
yet
spoken
and
would
like
to
raise
any
questions
or
concerns
has
a
space
do
so,
if
not,
we
can
jump
to
Andrew
foreign.
J
Just
one
question:
just
one
question:
I
just
got
a
text
message
from
a
bunch
of
my
neighbors:
they
don't
do
Zoom
because
they're
older.
So
could
we
have
one
of
these
meetings
in
person.
A
Yeah,
we
can
definitely
look
at
that.
We
want
to
have
one
of
our
meetings
in
person
and.
J
A
A
A
A
There's
there's
challenges
to
all
all
matters
of
gathering,
but
we've
definitely
encountered
the
situation
before
where
you
know
either
due
to
I.T
challenges,
or
you
know,
one
family
has
one
laptop
and
the
kids
get
it
to
do
the
homework
you
know
like
you
can't
do
community
meetings
sometimes
so
we're
definitely
gonna
try
and
do
a
number
of
different
ways
of
Outreach.
So
thanks
for
bringing
that
up,
wasn't.
A
A
Oh
was
that
the
Jackson
Man
school
like
having
to
do
with
PFD
was
that
they're
talking
about
the
sightings
yeah?
Okay,
it
wasn't
about
ringer,
because
it
wasn't
our
Parks
meeting,
I
guess,
but
they
may
have
had
an
in-person
meeting.
It
wasn't
I'm
in
touch
with
them,
because
I'm
interested
in
figuring
out
where
their
project
is
going
because,
obviously
the
BPS
property
there's
a
lot
of
question
marks
about
that
and
we're
very
interested
in
knowing
who
our
butter
is
going
to
be
there.
A
You
know,
what's
what's
gonna
happen,
who's
going
to
be
in
that
school,
but
so
I'm
in
touch
with
them
to
try
and
understand
what
their
deadlines
are.
But
I
was
not
about
me.
Q
I
just
had
one
question
that
I
don't
know
if
I
didn't
cover
it.
I
was
wondering
what
the
plan
for
the
actual
like
passive
use,
Gathering
space
was
I
know
we
talked
about
like
the
turf
and
the
the
floor,
but
I
was
also
wondering
about
seating
and,
like
benches
or
Pub
or
picnic
tables
stuff
like
that.
Q
A
A
So
we
can
look
at
adding
seating
if
it
makes
sense
like
along
Pathways.
You
know
everybody
likes
to
sit
in
the
shade
of
a
tree,
and
so
that's
that's
great
feedback
and
we'll
definitely
take
that
into
consideration.
Thank
you.
Q
I
guess
can
I
just
hop
on
noticing
the
the
Austin
Olson
Street
entrance
is
also
a
pretty
big
bus
station,
so
I
think
or
sorry
a
child
school
bus
stop
so
I
think
seating
around
that
entrance
specifically
would
probably
be
in
pretty
high
demand.
There's
a
lot
of
kids
there
and
parents
there
in
the
mornings.
A
Q
C
All
right,
then,
we
do
still
have
two
hands
raised,
but
again
for
the
interesting
time.
Let's
please
keep
our
questions
or
comments
to
two
minutes.
I
will
go
to
Bob
and
then
to
Andrew.
I
No
comment,
but
if
you
can
see
this,
that's
a
photograph
taken
in
1985
or
so
by
me.
That's
a
stolen,
stripped
and
burned
car
driven
over
that
stone
ledge
by
the
West
End
house
in
ringer
Park,
the
original
friends
of
ringer
Park.
We
spent
two
years
working
with
the
parks
department
at
DW,
DPW,
hauling
out
Transmissions
cars,
motorcycles
and
all
kinds
of
endless
crap
from
misuse.
So
things
aren't
so
bad
right
now,
but
we
still
need
a
lot
of
help.
So
thanks
for
having
this
meeting
and
as
we
go
forward,
that's
it.
A
J
K
C
R
D
A
A
Well,
the
question
is:
who
do
we
want
to
use
our
parks
and
how
can
we
get
them
to
and
through
our
parks
in
a
way
that
is,
you
know
genuinely
welcoming
and
I?
That
was.
That
was
a
great
point
that
I
can't
remember
if
that
was
Fletcher.
No
Grace
Fairchild,
yes
made
a
great
point
about.
You
know:
joint
Comfort.
A
R
A
Think
it
might
have
been
degraded,
wood
chips
or
something,
and
so
there
are.
There
are
manners
that
we
can
try
and
address
this
from
a
design
perspective,
if
you
have,
let's
just
say,
for
example,
an
asphalt
path
which
everyone's
like
Woodlands
asphalt,
bad,
but
perhaps
with
like
wood
edges,
you
know
sort
of
like
wood
curbing
there's
a
possibility.
Listening
to
you
know
the
concern
about
joints,
I,
don't
know
if
the
cost
of
safety
surface
through
there
could
be
a
possibility,
and
it's
something
that
would
be
soft
and
it
is
also
accessible.
A
A
A
So
you
know
it
will
be
paved
in
some
Manner
and
that
you
know
we're
not
looking
at
caving
through
all
all
the
woodlands
and-
and
you
know,
there's
some
paths
that
are
just
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
get
to
them.
We
can't
make
you
know
we,
we
can't
have
accessibility
everywhere.
We
do
understand
that,
but
our
goal
is
to
really
try
and
make
as
much
of
this
park
accessible
to
as
many
people
as
we
can
so.
R
R
E
A
Thank
you
for
bringing
it
up.
You
know,
I
think
that
it's.
It
is
something
that
it's
tough,
especially
when
you
appreciate
the
character
of
a
space
and
and
the
feeling
of
it,
and
you
know
we
will
try
and
take
that
to
heart
in
the
design
of
it
and
to
create
something
that
can
be
inclusive
and
can
also
it's
not
going
to
be
like
here's
a
wide,
concrete
path.
That's
right
and
you
know
it's
like
we're
going
to
try
and
as
best
we
can
fit
it
into
the
context.
S
Awesome
I
just
want
to
say
I'm
actually
at
the
park
right
now
and
have
been
enjoying
this
call
using
the
park.
It's
really
a
great
resource,
and
so
I
really
appreciate
these
plans.
S
I
do
I
have
a
question,
but
I
did
also
want
to
Echo
what
the
previous
caller
just
said
about
you
know.
I
know,
understand,
I,
understand
that
we're
sort
of
making
this
choice
about
that
area
in
back,
but
it
is
worthwhile
keeping
it
as
natural
as
possible
and
I
I
thought
I.
Remember
actually
some
discussion
at
the
previous
meetings
about
not
lighting
that
area
because
of
the
wildlife
considerations
and
sort
of
keeping
it
a
dark
space.
But
I
do
understand
that
that
balance
about
Public
Safety.
S
My
question
is
I.
I
was
more
curious
as
to
whether
I
remember
from
the
conversations
last
for
I
guess
in
2021
that
there
was
some
potential
consideration
to
changing
the
configuration
of
the
play
area
to
not
be
primarily
baseball,
but
a
mixed
use,
field
and
potentially
switching
the
orientation
of
it
and
I
was
wondering
if
that
went
any
further
or
if
we're
like
definitely
locked
into
the
baseball
fields
and
accessory
use.
A
I
think
there
were
some
explorations
of
that
and
part
of
our
part
of
our
focusing
of
the
plan
elements
right
now.
We
sort
of
are
tabling
the
playground
and
the
active
Recreation,
because
we
understand
that
I,
don't
I,
don't
think
there
have
been
permits
for
little
league
there
for
for
quite
some
time,
and
so
we're
not
really
sure
what
the
priorities
are.
I
think
a
multi-purpose
field
would
be
great.
A
That
would
allow
lots
of
different
types
of
active
Recreation
to
happen,
but
we're
really
aiming
for
some
kind
of
direction
from
EPS
just
because
they
will
be
right
next
to
the
site
and
we
would
want
them
to
kind
of
weigh
in
because
they
would
use
this
park.
A
Also,
the
bcyf
you
know
their
their
kids
are
going
to
use
this
park
as
well,
so
we're
working
with
them
right
now
and
as
well
as
the
West
End
house.
So
you
know
I
think
that
we're
sort
of
hoping
that
the
BPS
piece
can
can
start
to
form
and
that
our
next
phase
will
be
determining.
A
If
you
know
what
type
of
field
that
is
determining
the
play
area
and
if
there's
anything,
we
can
do
to
develop
that
in
a
way
that
you
know
helps
out
the
different
School
populations
that
are
here.
You
know
how,
so
that.
That's
what.
A
A
Are
there
any
planned
or
sorry
it
will
be
any
answers.
Yeah
we
didn't
so
right
now.
You
know
we
have
sort
of
looked
at
the
big
picture,
so
we
are
not
showing
any
benches,
but
I.
Think
for
certain.
The
idea
of
benches
added
along
Pathways
is
something
that
a
lot
of
people
would
probably
like,
and
we
can
find
areas
where
that
would
be.
You
know
different
viewpoints
or
areas
near
you
know,
buses
or
whatever
we're
definitely
going
to
take
that
into
consideration
and
see
where
that
could
work.
So
I
think.
A
That's
a
great
point
great.
Thank
you,
yeah,
sorry
for
missing
that
so
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you
all,
because
this
has
been
a
fantastically
informative
session.
Counselor
Braden
did
you
just
have
your
hand
up.
D
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
me
and
the
team
for
the
parks
team
for
all
of
this
great
work
and
also
to
everyone
who
took
time
to
participate,
I
I
agree.
It's
been
a
great
conversation.
I
also
want
to
make
a
plug
for
our
our
newsletter
from
our
office.
We
put
out
a
newsletter
twice
a
month
in
the
absence
of
having
a
new
local
newspaper.
It's
a
way
to
keep
people
informed
about
meetings
like
this
and
and
other
goings-on
in
the
neighborhood.
D
So
if
anyone
who
hasn't
already
got
our
news
get
our
newsletter
just
to
send
an
email
to
liz.breeden
boston.gov
and
we
can
sign
them
up
for
the
newsletter
and
hopefully
that
would
be
something
that'll
be
useful
for
folks.
Thank
you
so
much.
A
Thanks
for
keeping
the
community
connected,
that
sounds
like
a
great
resource,
so
here
we
have
our
slide
with
next
steps.
So
phase
one
improvements,
we're
gonna
proceed,
doing
site
investigation.
If
you
see
guys
out
there
guys
and
gals
and
others
looking
at
the
trees
closely.
Those
are
our
arborists
they're
going
to
be
making
an
assessment
trying
to
make
determinations
for
pruning
for
treatments
