<br />In the last budget, $2,000. was appropriated for the maintenance of play-
<br />grounds a~d later $600. was appropriated for play-grounds ~%he ~th WaX.d from Sth Wa~d funds.
<br />
<br /> The Director of Public Welfare has recommended that $~00. of this amount
<br />be made available to.pay an instructor during three months-of the coming summer. In th£s
<br />time it is believed tha~ a proper plan for the play-grounds could be worked up by this in-
<br />structor and a definite program adopted for next year.
<br />
<br /> I con,ir in the recommendation of the Director. of Public Welfare and re-
<br />commend that I be authorized~ to use $~00. from City funds and $100.. from 8th Ward funds for
<br />t~e pumpose indicated ~ him.

<br /> "TO THE HONORABLE UITY COUNCIL:

<br />
<br /> "Gentlemen:
<br /> In contraction with the development of ou~ park, it is believed that a de-.
<br />finite and cosplete plan shouldbe ~epmred by m competent l~dscmpe mrtist. This pl~
<br />should cover a period of fo~ or five years, so ~ to give a systematic development of the
<br />park.
<br />
<br /> I ~elieve that ibis Complete deVelO~eni could be m~de for $30,0~ or
<br />~,000, or s~y by ~ ex~lture of %10,~0 per ye=.
