Joel informed the Board of the prices we had received from quotes. Iie told the Board staff would like to get a recommendation from them on the fencing. A motion was made by Richard Hayes and seconded by Lloyd Roper to place chain-link fence along the side by Little Cedar Bayou Park and barbed wire fencing along Wharton-Weems Road. Motion passed. It was suggested by Dennis Dunham that crepe myrtles be planted along Wharton-Weems Road where the barbed wire fencing was located. Dr. Tolles asked if there should be a locked gate located in the fencing on the side next to Little Cedar Bayou Parl: or did the Board feel this was necessary, in case of an emergency, etc.? Dennis Dunham said this could be a good point, especially if E.M.S. should need to get into this area. David Brady said he felt should the need arise at the park, the E.M.S. could go in at the park or go in by the back side of the canal. After • discussion it was decided that a gate was not necessary and would not be installed.
