(Atlantic, Iowa) – A regular monthly meeting of the City of Atlantic’s Parks and Recreation Department Advisory Commission will take place Wednesday (Aug. 28), at the Parks & Rec Office located just off Sunnyside Lane. The meeting begins at 3:30-p.m.

The only item of New Business on the agenda, is “Playground evaluation,” plus any other matter of new business that may come before the Commission.

Old Business/discussion items include:

• An update on the model solar system for the Schildberg Recreation Area. During their meeting last month, Parks Coordinator Jeff Christensen said he was still trying to find a business that would make different-size metal spheres.

• Guidelines for donations – relocating, removal, etc.
• Signage for the Bull Creek entrance. At last report, Commission Chair Kevin Ferguson had presented the cost ($600) to Junior Federated, and was waiting for a response. He was assured by the Atlantic Junior Federated organization representative Jamie Joyce, that the sign would be stable and able to withstand the elements.
