a 1987 public hearing held on the
future of the park, neighbors told
city council earlier this month.

Residents said they expected
that a “hard surface play area,"
with at most a single basketball
hoop and a tennis court, would be
built at the south end of the park,
between Fell and Bewicke
avenues, near Larson Road.

Instead a full basketball court,
with lighting for night play, is be-
ing built 160 ft. (49 m) to the
northeast of the original proposed
location.

Karen Milne, a resident to the
east of the park, above the new
court site, said sound carries up-

wards to her home from the park.
She said the noise would be worse
from the new location.

There are no other full basket-
ball courts in the city, so teams
would be attracted from a wide
area, she said.

Added Milne: ‘‘People who
were at the meetings in 1987 are
upset. AH of us living on the
slopes above the park were not

Zaher Meghji, representing res-
idents to the west of the park,
said he wanted to see a ‘non-
congregational’ facility in the
park, which would not attract
competing teams.

He suggested a tennis court, ‘if
there is a feeling that there has to
be a facility.”’

Council voted to stop work on
the court. The issue wili be
discussed at a parks committee
meeting on Monday, May 10.

In the meantime, the site, from
which four large Poplar trees have
been removed, sits with a gravel
surface already prepared.
