Baseball Diamond Improvement Dated 3/7/90 <br />B. Bederwood Park Memo Dated 2/22/90 <br />C. Bederwood Park Layout <br />ISSUE - <br />1. Determine if Council desires to enter into a cooperative <br />agreement with the Baseball Association for improvement of <br />Bederwood for use by the Association. <br />2.
