The city of Bryan now is
working in a program that will
entail a serious overhaul of its
parks around the city. At the
parks and recreation meeting
Tuesday night. Sue Haswell
Park was the current focus of
the remodeling plan.
According to David Schmitz,
division manager of the Bryan
parks and recreation depart
ment, the renovated Sue
Haswell Park “will be aimed at
not only becoming a centerpiece
for Bryan, but to also draw in
people from the surrounding
communities and towns.”
The park will have two base
ball fields, a basketball court and a
tennis court. Pavilions will be
upgraded along with the addition
of “The Path of Presidents” that
will be lined with kiosks, each
featuring three reliefs in brass of
the head of every president from
Washington through Clinton,
along with a famous quote.
A portion of the park will be
dedicated by the American
Cancer Society to cancer sur
vivors and will contain benches
and a lit walkway.
This 19-acre park, located at
the intersection of William
Jennings Bryan Parkway and
Coulter Street, will complete its
renovation early next year.
The completed remodeling
of the Schulman Palace Theater
in downtown Bryan also was on
the agenda. Since the roof and
two walls of the theater col
lapsed in May of 1986, the
Palace has not been used much,
but is now being scheduled for
groups such as improvisational
comedy crew Freudian Slip and
musician Bob French.
Also announced was that
there will be a holiday lighting
contest called the “Parade of
Lights,” that will award cash
prizes to those winning homes
or businesses in Bryan and
College Station.
At the College Station Parks
and Recreation meeting on
Tuesday, Oct 9, two new parks
were approved. These small
neighborhood parks will be
located in the subdivisions of
Castlegate Park and Westfield.
The Westfield park will be built
adjacent to where a future ele
mentary school will be construct
ed and could be built as a joint
operation between the Parks and

Bryan hires finance officer
By Eric Ambroso
THE BATTALION
The city of Bryan hired a chief financial
officer to strengthen the administrative
direction and supervision of the city’s
financial services.
Kathy Davidson will serve as Bryan’s
first chief financial officer.starting Nov. 19.
The position was created after a period of
restructuring within the city of Bryan
administration.
“It is my understanding that the city of
Bryan has received criticism for not being
able to complete audits and financial
reports in a timely matter and that some
changes needed to be made,” said
Davidson.
Davidson, 47, will move from Midland
where she served as financial controller for
Tomcat USA. an entertainment manufac
turing company.
From 1977 to 1995 Davidson lived in
Bryan, holding a variety of finance-related
