In 1974, Jeanette presented a proposal to the city council to develop a park in downtown Hopkins. She wrote letters and spoke before numerous civic and professional organizations to garner their support. She presented her proposal and letters of support to the city council and in May of 1974, the proposal for the development of a downtown park was approved.
