Agenda item for constable 119 321 relating to the Department of Parks and Recreation amending ordinance 125 493 The committee recommends the bill. Pass. Councilmember Bexar Good, thank you. I'm going to speak to this item number four, which is First Hill Park, and then I'm going to pass it to my colleague, Councilmember Herbold, to talk about the property at 7137 38th Avenue Southwest, since this is her district and she's been very greatly involved in it. So the first Hill Park, I want to say thank you to Alex Hudson. Thank you for coming. For all your folks that have worked so hard on this, this particular legislation would reallocate 500,000 from the Property Acquisition Fund in our Parks and Recreation Opportunity Fund reaching back to 2008 and allow these funds to be used for redevelopment and improvements to the existing park. So this particular it's a small park up on first hill, but as we all know, four still really needs more parks and this is one that is there now but will be improved. I'm also working with the First Hill Association about expanding some pedestrian connections throughout the first Hill area. But this particular area or this park area will be matched by a $500,000 contribution from Swedish Medical Center. I want to say thanks to that. I know that, Alex, that you worked hard to make sure that we got this matching fund. So redevelopment will include new walking paths in the central gathering area, lighting benches and play features. And it certainly will improve the first hill area. And I want to say thank you and recommend that we do move forward with this reallocation of funds and the improvement on the park. It's very good. We'll address it the next two gentlemen next to each an item. So any questions on this bill? If not, please call the rule on the passage of the bill. Johnson, I. Mosquito, I.
