The next step towards developing the Southeast Regional Park, individually known as the A. Perry Philips Park and the Gans Creek Recreation Area, begins next week with the first of two public meetings.
Both meetings as scheduled below will be held in the meeting rooms at the Activity and Recreation Center (ARC), 1701 West Ash Street.
- Wednesday, December 10, 2008 7:00 pm
- Wednesday, January 7, 2009 7:00 pm
Meetings will begin at 7:00 pm with a 30-45 minute presentation by park staff and following the presentation, staff will be available for comments and discussion. Participants will be asked to submit comments on specific forms that may be turned in during the meeting or at a later date.
These meetings are designed to introduce two concept plans as developed by park planners. These plans were created using information derived from two public meetings in November 2007, seven interested parties meetings in December 2007 and comments from a web based survey. Park planners also evaluated current facilities and compared them to future needs of the department and those that use the parks and facilities. A park natural resource inventory was conducted by staff from the Missouri Department of Natural Recources and these plans were developed in conjunction with their comments. These plans are available for viewing at the following location:
The natural resouce inventory is available for public viewing on the P&R Department's Southeast Regional Park Planning website. Much more information is available on this website as noted below.
