Commissioner Aleman has requested a referral to the Finance and Citywide Projects Committee in order to discuss the installation of a drinking fountain on the northeast corner of Polo Park. The area where the fountain would be installed is adjacent to the open field space at the park. The field is frequently used throughout the day by residents and the children who attend Nautilus Middle School, which is adjacent to the park.
Currently, the park has a water fountain by the softball field and the playground, but none in the open field area. The addition of the drinking fountain will also prove beneficial as the City’s baseball program expands into Polo Park.
