Property, located at West 29th & Newland Streets in Wheat

to the purchase of the property Maybelle Rossilon, 6505 W 31st Ave,
and Lillian Fleming, 6363 W 29th Ave, spoke in favor of purchasing the
property Failed Motion oy Mr Lewis that this be continued for at
least 30 days, more if Parks and Recreation needs it, because 1) the
appraisal did not come back as the motion stated, which was to be for
the costs with the land to be ready for use for the City to build a
park, whereas the building removal appraisal was verbal, and 2) that the
Park Commission come up with a foolproof method of safety for children
in the area with Newland Street running between the two Parks, seconded
