Redevelop existing fields with draintile and <br />irrigation improvements. <br /> »Meadow Wood Park: It is recommended to explore the options for purchase <br />of residential lot(s) if opportunities arise for development of a parking lot, or <br />signage for shared parking with Cub. Redevelop existing fields with draintile <br />and irrigation improvements. <br /> »Silver Oaks Park: The field shall be left as practice space only or if <br />eliminated, should dedicate this space solely for baseball. <br /> »Overall, continue to work with School District and athletic associations to <br />identify potential space for improved adult sized field space as a joint effort.
