<br />Araiza, Fatima <br />From:Lindsay Manning <asulinz@hotmail.com> <br />Sent:Wednesday, May <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Special City Council Meeting 5-16-24 / Item #1 / Exhibits 2 & 3 <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br />My name is Lindsay Manning and I have been a resident of Washington Square (part of Ward 5) for almost 8 <br />years now. I am e-mailing you to let you know my desire for a nearby park. <br /> <br />I have 2 children and when they were little we had to get in our car and drive to Floral Park or Morrison Park <br />to go play somewhere outside of our own yard....Do you know how hard this is and how much work this is as a <br />mom of 2 small kids? Its downright exhausting sometimes - all I ever wanted was an easy stroller walk to a <br />park to get out and get some fresh air and Washington Square never had that to offer. We used to reside in <br />Irvine and did this all the time - and it is the one thing we missed when we moved to Santa Ana. I know when <br />I say a park would be adored and utilized by Washington Square families that I would not be alone. I am part <br />of the Mom's Facebook group in Washington Square and a constant post is "where do you take your kids to <br />the park" and the answer is always well get in the car and drive......I would love to be able to tell moms we <br />have a lovely park in our own square - and that it is safe and useable for all ages! <br /> <br />I ask you....please support the passing of a feasibility study for a park in Washington Square. Do it for the <br />kids! The future of Santa Ana! <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Lindsay Manning <br />1 <br />
