Contributed open letter to the Clarksville City Council by Brian DeSantis, president of the Clarksville Soccer Club:
I am writing to you to express our strong opposition to Councilman Richard Garrett’s resolution to take $14 million from the Exit 8 Athletic Complex and reallocating those funds toward a project in North Clarksville. The soccer community, the football community and the lacrosse community have fought for nearly a decade to add quality fields to the Clarksville Parks and Recreation inventory to meet our needs due to the growth of Clarksville and Montgomery County and the increase in participation in youth sports associated with that growth.
