Following this, the park will be seeded so. that beginning next spring proper grass will be growing in the park.

To date, the park has cost approximately $2 5,000, being the cost of the tennis courts and playground equipment, and the fill, topsoil, and seed operation will cost in the neighbourhood of $22,000. Next year's work could add another $60,000 to the overali cost of developing Central Park. Mr. Deveau also reported that the manufac- turer of the playground equipment will be inspecting the slidàes, etc. to determine what might be done to improve the safety aspects. It was, all in ail, a postive report on the status of Central Park. Another itemn of interest, was the news that the commrunity centre - day care centre - credit union had gone by the boards. The meeting also spent considerable time discussing the overcrowding in the two elementary schools (West Lynde and St. John's) serving our area, and heard a report that building permits had been applied for by the developers of the two higlirises.
