I thought it odd and a shame that they hadn't completed them on time.
Yes John, it is. We don't know the details, of course, and there is most
certainly some plausible excuse. Had some of the actual basketball players
been allowed and invited into the process, they could keep the others
informed through the grassroot networks that exist in communities.
How difficult would it be to use a construction delay to cloak an effort to
break-up the community whom has used that court for decades?
Since the basketball players have no idea about anything involved with the
project, they will simply break up and go away. That court might not be
done for years as far as we know.
It may have a fence and a lock on it so that FOCP can control it in the
future. We simply have no idea. We are not allowed to participate and
those claiming the right to make all decisions will not give us truthful
answers. If I were a basketball player, I would conclude that I don't have
a voice in my park.
I'm a dog walker, a volleyball player, festival organizer, and I know for
sure that none of us outside the inner circle of FOCP leaders have rights or
a voice about the future of Clark park.
Sincerely,
Glenn.

Interesting; I noticed that the sign at the basketball courts indicated
that constuction would be done in October, but they were still in
disarray when I went to the park recently.
