Louis) Pa~k. Without.any fanfare, trenches were dug for the first phase ofa $30~000 project approved earlier this year aftermuch input from residents of the area working close-ly with the Ferndale Parks and Recreation Departmentand Mayor. and Council.

THE ORIGINAl PI AN was to break ground in October, butdelays in the bid process apparantly rorced a o~emonth delay. Readers \'(illremember .this site hadbeen a controversial ar, a back in 1983~when meet -ings .T ere held to deter~~1inewhether the Pffrk landshould be returned to the Macpelah Cemetary becauseof insufficient use of the Park by local area resi-dents. After numerous meetings, which began withHon. James Avery's administraticlrt, and culminated inthe decision t~ 'stock the Park'with more tables,install a T imber Piece, (l~ke many of the playgroundsat the City's school grounds currently enjoy, ) andshrubbery strategicly placed to beautify the Park aswell as remove the direct view of tombstones whichsome residents felt detracted from Park usage.

EDIT ORIAL COHMENT S: Representatives of Macpelah Cem-etary told the Ferndale News-Voice earlier this sum-.mer th~t they had not exhausted all their legal rem-;ediesto recover the ownership of the Park, but itis certainly questionable whether Avery's Administ-ration., .orGertley' s Administration would err in' p u t t i n g ' the $30,000 into playground equipment andesthetic-appealing shrubbery and landscaping unlessthey felt their legal pOS ition relative to theirownership , of the Park was solid .only time willtell. However, our congratulations to Mayor AlbertGertley and CounCil, as well as the Park and Recre-ation Committee for beginning a long-over due proj-ect with this ground-breaki~g.
