10) CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT.
11) CITY CLERK'S REPORT.
12) CITY MANAGER'S REPORT.
13) CITIZEN PARTICIPATION.
Doreen Freeman, 705 Mellonville Avenue, said that she agrees with discussion at today's Work Session that
the development of Fort Mellon Park should proceed, and suggested downsca1ing the plan and adding a hedge instead of a
cement wall. She also inquired whether the City would regain the Police Department dispatching service when the new
Public Safety Facility is built.
Mayor Kuhn said that the cost to regain the communication center has been discussed, as has value
engineering for Fort Mellon Park.
Millard Hunt, 801 E. 2nd Street, suggested involving citizens in renovation of Fort Mellon Park and hoped
that the bandshell could be rebuilt on the lake or be built instead of the grand entrance in the middle of the park.
14) CITY COMMISSIONERS' REPORTS.
Vice Mayor Williams suggested that since the plan for Fort Mellon Park has to be rethought, that a
citizens committee be formed consisting of a representative from each district to give input regarding the plan.
Commissioner Woodruff said that this past Saturday Y outhBuild held its first ground breaking ceremony for
the home being built on Marshall Avenue through Habitat for Humanity (one of the pieces of property donated by the City
to them for that purpose). He also said that Habitat for Humanity has another piece of property for two homes in Roseland
Park, and had made a request of Y outhBuild, and therefore the City, for a trade of one of the building sites in Roseland
Park for the other Marshall A venue site. It is easier for them to build houses side by side at the same time rather than at
different locations. He asked the Commission if there was objection to the trade, and there was none.
Mayor Kuhn said that the SNAP Program has progressed rapidly and has expanded its perimeter area to
incorporate 13th Street in Goldsboro and the surrounding immediate residential area She said that each year the
Commission is allocated $25,000 each for special projects, and that this year she committed hers to the SNAP Program.
She asked Commissioner Bridges if she could have his allocation to be used for the SNAP Program since it has not been
expended. He said that he would give it consideration.
