thank you for putting together a thorough sc...Dave,<br />thank you for putting together a thorough scope of questions and comments that are at the heart of many of us who are seeking to improve and advocate for our Lake City neighborhood. And thank you for doing so much to keep the ball rolling with gathering of data, organizing meetings and much much more..takes a village but also some fire in the belly leadership to move forward.<br />Question...Can you post here on DPC blog spot the history of the skatepark in Virgil Flaim idea and where we are right now in regards to funding, support from the city, grants, support from the neighborhood? I know very little about this idea.<br /> <br />Unfortunately, I am unable to attend this eve.<br />But am interested in keeping the heat on the city about our great need for community amenities as you talked about above...the need for a civic center that reflects the increase of populations.. a population with great variance and diversity in age, race, ethnicity, physical capabilities, mental health, education, economic status etc...and that if we are going to continue to be a neighborhood which attracts and provides services to those in most need...which I believe we should do.. that we are supported accordingly with our need for community amenities, and a thriving civic core for ALL. And that if the ball is rolling in the direction of selling station 39 property and all our shouts of crying foul on this action fall on deaf ears then how about $ proportionate support from city for major upgrade for community center AND significant $ support for amenities to be included in redevelopment of 'Pierre Square' or Pierre Plaza'....twodoganniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10398377292343143104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6319071356402932434.post-7293921687082171032012-04-06T20:13:26.430-07:002012-04-06T20:13:26.430-07:00GREAT ideas and questions!
