PUBLIC BUILDINGS & The following recommendation from the Joint Planning Commission GROUND - Westside was presented to the Board for their consideration: Recreation Center "This commission is in receipt of a request from the Superintendent of the Las Vegas Union School District, Mr. Walter D. Johnson, with regard to use of the open area lying between the West Side Swimming Pool and the West Side Elementary School. It is the desire of the School Board that some joint arrangement be established between the City and the School District whereby the entire open area could be developed for playground and recreational purposes. While this has been the thought of the City for some time, there should be certain commitments with regard to the development, including the closing of Adams Street between C and D Streets, which would not only eliminate the possibility of accidents to children but permit the use of approximately an additional one-half acre of area. This request and anticipated use was considered at a regular meeting of the Joint Planning Commission held November 25, 1947, with the recommendation that such use be established, together with the closing of Adams Street. The closing of Adams Street can be accomplished either through vacation or merely barricades. In the event any structures are to be erected now or in the future, vacation would then be desirable, in which case the necessary legal procedure must be established. In any event, if structures are not to be erected in the area which would normally be used for street purposes, then game and play areas could be established. — With concurrency by Your Board and sanction of the above, this area may be put to beneficial use for students at the school and inhabitants of the West Side in general." Thereafter, Commissioner Baskin moved that the recommendation of the Planning Board be approved relative to Westside Recreation Center subject to the approval of the City Manager. Motion seconded by Com­missioner Whipple and carried by the following vote* Commissioners Baskin Clark, Whipple and His Honor voting aye. Noes, none. Absent: Com­missioner Moore.
