>1. The Parks and Recreation Department to assume the
responsibility in the pattern of the Civil Defense Pro-
gram --- plans are presently being formulated whereby
facilities and recreation programming will be synchron-
ized to fit the needs of this emergency.
>2. A continuation of our program of improvement and de-
velopment on present park properties. The past year has
proven this program to be most beneficial from the stand-
point of "eye-appeal" and "play-appeal".
)3. A complete survey of areas for future parks and rec-
reation purposes plus adopting a program which would
make it possible to acquire those properties that are
suitable for development and where it is reasonably
proven that a present or future need does exist.
)4. Consideration be given the ways and means of aug-
menting our full time leadership. In view of the increase
in leisure-time participants, this becomes a vital factor.
