No provlslons have been made for upkeep of the parks of the former
1 mill districts within Lakewood. Several suggestions were offered
by Senator Ruth Stockton, one of which was the formation of a city
park department.
Where complex problems face Lakewood, the only problem facing Wheat
Riege is the transfer of property from the commissioners and the ex-
clusion of a small Wheat Ridge area from North Jeffco.
Attorney Fox stated that there is a conflicting statute that says that
the parks become the property of the cities upon incorporation.
