>project.

>creek channel.  The task force discussed other locations where the linear
>park system would need to coordinate development with the railroad.  Becky
>was assigned the task of researching ownership along these various
>locations.  Phil said that there are some records at his office which were
>done by an intern that show many of these ownerships.  Becky can use this
>information as a starting point.
