McDermott indicated the Commission will be studying the <br />City's demographics to determine future recreational needs. <br />The Commission is sending letters to the residents of Hackberry and Bederwood Park <br />areas to inform them that the ice rinks at these parks will be discontinued due to poor ice <br />quality. An ice rink will be maintained at Casco Point. The Commission is considering <br />the possibility of creating an ice rink on a pond at the golf course, which would correlate <br />activities for residents with sledding, skiing, and the availability of the club house. <br />Jabbour asked for clarification regarding the meeting with neighbors of Dickey Park. <br />McDermott indicated concern has been voiced from these residents regarding what will <br />be provided at the park. McDermott said the park plans call for a low impact park. <br />0 <br />
