on Selva Marina * East on Country Club * Around the front section of Johansen

The proposed Bull Park plan was reviewed and it was the consensus of the Board to
move the Memorial Plaza, south to add room for the play area.

of their responsibilities.
Mark suggested riding the fourteen mile proposed bike route instead of having a meeting
in June. The Board agreed.
