Resident urges clearer meeting notices and renewed focus on 9th Street Park
Summary
Longtime resident George Hague told the Parks Advisory Board the city website makes meetings hard to find and urged the board to prioritize maintenance and a community vision for 9th Street Park, recalling earlier public input that has not been implemented.
Resident George Hague told the Astoria Parks Advisory Board that the city website made it difficult for him to find the meeting notice and asked the board to make parks meeting information easier to locate. "I should be able to go to the city's website and very easily, see when all of you are getting up so early in the morning to have this meeting and to allow a person from the public to, say a few words if they wish," Hague said.
Hague also urged the board to prioritize the 9th Street Park, saying community visions from prior outreach had not been reflected in the park's recent plans and suggesting on-site kiosks so visitors could learn about nearby historic features. Board members thanked Hague and said staff would check the parks information on the city website and continue to solicit input for the Lindstrom and 9th Street parks.
