(Deferred 5/4/20) <br /> President O'Malley kicked off the conversation, remarking on the two projects in the original <br /> HUD plan that were removed—Madison Park lighting and Clifton Prado Park redesign. Both <br /> projects were in Ward 4 and represented much hard work and anticipation. He noted that since <br /> this was first brought before Council on May 4h, he has had productive conversations with <br /> Planning and Public Works regarding the future of the projects. He expressed optimism that <br /> delaying redesign of Clifton Prado Park will ultimately allow for a more imaginative and <br /> enhanced final product. Planning Department made assurances that the extra time would be well <br /> spent engaging residents for feedback this fall and that the project could be completed by Spring <br /> 1 <br />
