The Offical Unofficial Minutes of the WL BOA
7 August

The WL Park Board has presented their Long Range Plan to the Mayor and BOA.  There was general agreement that is was a marvelous document.  There were no copies available at the meeting for the public but I am sure, if you are interested, your alderman would share their copy with you.  The parks continue to be one of WL best kept secrets.  All of the parks are extremely well maintained, nice islands of green space (even in the drought) throughout our community.  Try and find another community our size, let alone a larger city, that can compare.  You won't find it.  Parks are supported by your tax dollars, dedicated to parks only, not out of the City's general funds.  Park Board members are volunteers, appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the BOA.

I just noticed today that the Birmingham Park and Potomac signs have been altered with the nautical rosette that the new entrances have. Who paid for that? the Park Board? Or, is that additional city money spent unwisely?
