MEMORANDUM
CONSIDERATION OF PARK PLANNER /LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
Page two
The Park Commission wishe to know if having a "Park Planner/
Landscape Architect" on r tainer would be a possibility. They
feel that this would be a definate plus for parks in a number
of ways:
- one person would become familiar with parks, plans, and PCIP's.
- they could do plans and specs on whatever is needed, prepare
bidding documents, review quotes and bids, and make recommen-
dations to Commissions and Council.
- Chances are very probable that fees would be lower that present
fees.
- parks would be their specialty, therefore they would have more
onsite experience.
