[ ] i just wanted to say a few words. One is to the parents and to all of the kids. Thank you for supporting this program and for trusting us to create a Soccer Program in the bayview. Soccer is the worlds game, and everybody plays, but in the united states, this is a sport that struggles with access for certain communities. I coached basketball in a coached football for years, it is the same thing. It is about motivating kids and keeping them together, and giving them new opportunities. When the kids came out, they had no idea really what the game was. Only one or two of them had played soccer before. We gave the kids very simple lessons every day and made sure that they had fun while they were doing it, and you really could see them evolve into a team over the course of the season. I think this is a great opportunity to be part of the community and be part of programs like this. I get to run around with my other teammates and pass the ball. This is new to me. Ive always played basket
And to thrive. Theyve been doing it for 20 ye years.

This is one of the most and im not crying. My allergies are killing me. But this is one
People have been given permission to go. To put up a fence doesnt feel good. Given permission by outside parties who have indicated this is a fun trail to go use. As soon as i heard this i directed my staff, find any place that there is access going on that shouldnt be in our watershed. I want to hear about it right now because we are stewards of that watershed. If we can find them, we will engage in a process. I think coming from the point of view that our job is to protect the watershed and provide reasonable access and i think we can do that. Thats why i brought up that connector trail that is probably the best solution in this case on a larger scale. And is there a sign on the gate that says that there will be a meeting to discuss the connector trail and receive input . Not yet. Well, it seems like that should happen right away. That seems like the minimum amount of effort that we can put in and i think theres additional steps to be able to respond to this question of people who fo
