-**Objective:** Evaluate feasibility and impact of migrating from Django to Laravel
+## Recently Completed
 
-**Key Decision:** ⛔️ Do NOT proceed with Laravel migration (see detailed analysis in `decisions/laravel_migration_analysis.md`)
+### Park Search Implementation (2024-02-22)
 
-**Analysis Summary:**
-1. **High Technical Risk**
-   - Complex custom Django features
-   - Extensive model relationships
-   - Specialized history tracking system
-   - Geographic/location services integration
+1. Autocomplete Base:
+   - Created BaseAutocomplete in core/forms.py
+   - Configured project-wide auth requirement
+   - Added test coverage for base functionality
 
-2. **Significant Business Impact**
-   - Estimated 4-6 month timeline
-   - $180,000-230,000 direct costs
-   - Service disruption risks
-   - Resource-intensive implementation
+2. Park Search:
+   - Implemented ParkAutocomplete class
+   - Created ParkSearchForm with autocomplete widget
+   - Updated views and templates for integration
+   - Added comprehensive test suite
 
-3. **Critical Systems Affected**
-   - Authentication and permissions
-   - Data model architecture
-   - Template system and HTMX integration
-   - API and service layers
+3. Documentation:
+   - Updated memory-bank/features/parks/search.md
+   - Added test documentation
+   - Created user interface guidelines
 
-**Recommended Direction:**
-1. Maintain and enhance current Django implementation
-2. Focus on feature development and optimization
-3. Consider hybrid approach for new features if needed
+## Active Tasks
 
-**Next Steps:**
-1. Document current system architecture thoroughly
-2. Identify optimization opportunities
-3. Update dependencies and security
-4. Enhance development workflows
+1. Testing:
+   - [ ] Run the test suite with `uv run pytest parks/tests/`
+   - [ ] Monitor test coverage with pytest-cov
+   - [ ] Verify HTMX interactions work as expected
 
-**Previous Context:** Park View Modularization work can continue as planned - the decision to maintain Django architecture means we can proceed with planned UI improvements.
+2. Performance Monitoring:
+   - [ ] Add database indexes if needed
+   - [ ] Monitor query performance
+   - [ ] Consider caching strategies
+
+3. User Experience:
+   - [ ] Get feedback on search responsiveness
+   - [ ] Monitor error rates
+   - [ ] Check accessibility compliance
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Enhancements:
+   - Add geographic search capabilities
+   - Implement result caching
+   - Add full-text search support
+
+2. Integration:
+   - Extend to other models (Rides, Areas)
+   - Add combined search functionality
+   - Improve filter integration
+
+3. Testing:
+   - Add Playwright e2e tests
+   - Implement performance benchmarks
+   - Add accessibility tests
+
+## Technical Debt
