The 11 -car playground parking round arkin lot would be eliminated and directional signs, indicating ava ilability labilit of p arking on the upper part of the Clarke Middle School grounds, would be installed. Daniel Deutsch, 12 Stedman Road, commented on the currently inadequate p arking arkin to accommodate Sunday users of the field and students of the Chinese School which meets in the area.
