Johnson then turned <br />the discussion of the plan over to Phyllis Hanson, <br />also representing Harstad Companies. <br />Hanson said she has looked at the site and put <br />some ideas on paper which is the memo the-Park. <br />Board received in their packet. 3.5 acres of this <br />development area is owned by the city. There-are <br />apartments planned to the south.. There are about <br />3 acres of land along the freeway which could be <br />used as park land. There is some vegetation along <br />the south freeway wall, there is erosion in this <br />area. <br />John Johnson commented that this plan is not <br />final..
