Subject: Communication to Parks & Recreation Members
Hello Linda,
Would you please communicate the following message to all members of the Parks & Recreation
Advisory Committee? Thank you! - Bill Ingui
Dear Parks Members -
I was invited to an 11 AM meeting on Thursday, August 12th where Mr. Hill, Mr. Hoss, Mr. McCarthy
and later joining us, Mr. Moore, to discuss the ultimate location site for the Caine House. The timing of
the move and the meeting to discuss this location did not permit time for me to hold a formal meeting of
our committee for approval. Therefore, I considered the committees wishes and hope that you will
accept that I made a decision to approve for our committee the location discussed last Thursday.
• The Caine House will be a focal point, not a corner, in the park. It will be relocated about 200 feet
north of the ditch along Indian River Drive, which is on the opposite side of the group of trees we
were looking at. It is a location more central to the park than we had considered, which was in the
corner.
• It will be about 70 feet from the center of the road and directly across from and facing the peers on
the Indian River.
• You can locate the site by noting the cement path that crosses Indian River Drive toward the park.
The idea would be to extend this path across the road and directly toward the Caine House.
• The House would become the focal point, where at any event and by you looking out the porch
and directly at the river, cars would be directed onto the grass on "your right" along the ditch to
the rear of the house and on "your far left," near the cleaners, to the rear of the house. The grass
would remain as the parking surface.
