And it could not be more obvious that the rogue 5 (Olson et al) on the board don't want us to have any information, pay any attention, or notice when parks are commercialized, downgraded, rented, sold off, etc, to big developers and corporations. It's because we sense this betrayal of public trust that we're so attentive - if we snooze, we lose. Imagine, just imagine, a Park Board more dedicated to stewardship and improvement of parks. To openness, fairness, candor. The sort of board we deserve. We will have a chance, a duty, to do this next election. Meanwhile, eternal vigilance is the price of the park system. --David Shove Roseville REMINDERS: 1. Think a member has violated the rules?
