• Park Master Plan Progress Report U • The Park Master Plan consultant, Halff and Associates, are approximately 50% through with the overall plan. A telephone survey was accomplished in July -August that gathered information from random households in La Porte. The consultants have met with the Parks & Recreation Department staff, and the City executive staff. There has been a Town Meeting held at Sylvan Beach Pavilion on September 5th to gather input from the community as a whole. Other special interest groups (i.e. youth sports associations, and City Council members) will be accomplished shortly. I talked to Ray Turco this morning, I should have a draft report on the telephone survey results by the time the retreat gets here and possibly a final report, as well as a status report on the total project. I should be able to have the consultant. Jim Carrillo, at the retreat to make a presentation if you think that's advisable The master plan should be ready for review in October, any revisions or changes needed should be accomplished and ready for Council approval by November, 2001. Another town meeting will be scheduled for November (prior to Council approval) to present the plan to the public and check public response to the plan. 12.1
