WRITTEN AND ORAL COMUNICATIONS Dorothy Freeman, Jean Sweeney Open Space Park (JSOSP) Fund: A friend of Jean Sweeney, Rosemary McNally passed away and had requested prior to her passing any donations in her honor, to be donated to Jean Sweeney Open Space Park. There was $3,500 raised from a picnic and Dorothy Freeman will work with ARPD to determine how it will be expended. At the last City Council meeting, Dorothy showed a drone aerial video of the Cross Alameda Trail through JSOSP during the report to accept the Trail completed by McGuire & Hester. At Earth Day, they found that people were more aware of the park than previously and excited about it opening. Written Communication from Rasheed Shabazz was forwarded to all Commissioners. See Exhibit 1. REPORTS FROM THE RECREATION AND PARK DIRECTOR Director Amy Wooldridge gave the report. See Exhibit 2. REPORTS FROM COMMISSIONERS Vice Chair Tilos: Attended the Earth Day event, lots of people. Questioned some organizations doing fundraising at their booths versus give-aways that raise awareness. Would like staff to review this policy. Has been playing golf at Corica Park. Greenway Golf is doing a great job out there and appreciated the benches at the 18th hole. Chair Limoges: Was in attendance at Earth Day with Alameda Backyard Growers. Appreciates being able to sell tomato starters at the event as a low-key fundraiser as it draws people to the booth. Complimentated ARPD for having the most efficient and best staff at all events; a big success. Looked at mural at the skate park, was surprised that it was smaller than expected but 1 | RecreationandParkCommission/2018-05-10.pdf |
