Even though many Saint Johnners may disagree, a study on recreation has concluded the city has an over abundance of facilities.
That study also concluded, however, there isn't enough money to properly maintain them. Chief City planner Ken Forrest says Common Council will have to make some tough decisions.
The city will come up with a master plan for recreation to cover the next quarter century.
Council did approve spending money to buy new equipment, including swings, for the playground on Glen Road which Councillor Bruce Court claimed was in a state of disrepair and he had asked everyone but the Pope to do something about it.
