Naming a park after former Turlock Mayor Dale Pinkney and an appeal by Patrick Noda of the Planning Commission action to purchase property at 800 West Hawkeye and 1418 N. Golden State Boulevard for the purpose of establishing a transit hub are part of the July 14, 2009 Turlock City Council Meeting Agenda.
The park currently known as “Cimarron Park” is being recommended by city staff to be renamed “Dale Pinkney Park.” The park is located in the northeast Turlock area, on Cherry Blossom and Arthur Mace Drive.
Dale Pinkney served on the Turlock Planning Commission from 1968 – 1970, the Turlock City Council from 1970 – 1978, and served as Mayor of Turlock from 1978 – 1982.
Patrick Noda is appealing a Turlock Planning Commission decision to purchase the triangle shaped property at Golden State Blvd. and Hawkeye Ave. for a transit hub location. Noda believes the hub will not be central and won’t serve the greatest number of people who ride the buses. Noda believes it should be downtown.
The Turlock City Council Meeting will be broadcasted live right here on TurlockCityNews.com at 7:00pm.
