Our family has lived in this <br />neighborhood since the 1950’s and these courts are staple and a part of our history here. We see them being used every <br />time we got to the park. <br /> This is the worst possible time to even consider removing or rebuilding at the park as so many of our local families are <br />counting on these spaces as a way to keep ourselves and our kids active. Many of the families in this neighborhood do <br />not have access to open spaces to run and play and the this park . . . the handball courts and the basketball courts are <br />vital to our mental and physical health. <br /> <br />Thank you for listening and taking the needs of the residents to heart and for making sure that our voices are <br />represented and listened to in earnest, Marlha Sanchez <br />1 <br />
