VISITORS:
AUGUST 5, 1969
REV. WILLIE VAUGHN addressed the Council and presented each councilman with a proposed
plan to build a multi-purpose building adjacent to Kurtzman Park. He felt there was a
real need for such a facility in East Pasco to further recreational, cultural and
environmental needs of the area. Cost for such a building was estimated at $550, .00
and it was proposed that H.U.D. finance 2/3 of the program under the Urban Renewal
Project and approximately $184,000.00 would be raised by citizens of the communit .
Rev. Vaughn asked the City for their assistance by sponsoring such a program.
WALLACE WEBSTER, Director of Community Action Committee, supported Rev. Vaughn's
statement and felt such a facility could be self-sustaining by renting office spaces,
sponsoring recreational events, etc.
Councilman Hendler voiced concern over the financial obligation of the City, as, in
h his opinion, it was virtually impossible for the City to take on any additional burden.
Mayor Carter supported Mr. Hendler's statement, but reiterated if moral support was all
was needed as well as administrative assistance, the City of Pasco certainly would Supp
their endeavors.
Rev. Vaughn invited members of the Pasco City Council to a Neighborhood Improvement
Meeting on August 14, 1969 to further discuss this program.
