I mean by not renewing the land <br />lease to River View Golf Course management. <br /> <br />My wife and I purchased our first home in January of 1989 in the Park Santiago neighborhood. If you would have told me <br />then that we would be Santa Ana residents for 35 years, I would have told you that you were crazy. We love Santa Ana! <br /> <br />With that said, I’ve been playing golf at River View all these years. We also have great little league memories with our kids <br />playing tournaments at Riverview Park. My wife and I also enjoy riding our tandem bicycle along the Santa Ana River <br />bicycle path. <br /> <br />Couldn’t the city budget the money to build more park throughout the river bed? The Army Corps of Engineers did an <br />amazing job at the River View Golf Course to help divert and control the rain water through the golf course. I’m confident <br />they could do the same to make hiking trails, small ponds, picnic areas and playgrounds throughout the river bed. I’m sure <br />the coyotes, bobcats and birds will appreciate it too. <br /> <br />Let’s show the state of California, LA County and even the Great Park what’s possible in beautifying urban areas. <br /> <br />Thank you, <br /> <br />Brady Kramer <br /> <br />“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!” - Benjamin Franklin <br />1 <br />
