Matt spoke of several different projects to improve Market Park. This includes constructing a 
pathway to the water wheel, updating the drainage issues in the grass areas, and planting trees to 
reduce noise pollution from Green Street. There was a continuation in the discussion proposed by 
Meredith Wilson to address the electrical capacity and find solutions that are capable of handling 
the demand Market Park faces. The board was in agreement that the next step for Market Park
