Tim,
Closing the park for two seasons is an important and well studied gentrification strategy for public spaces. This is a strategy designed to eliminate regular locals like the drum circle, volleyball, capture the flag, chess, dark skinned people, etc. After two seasons, the university/corporations hope that the undesireables have moved elsewhere.
The corporations/univeristy would prefer to avoid the masiive arrests for PR spin purposes. A new set of permit regulations will be carefully crafted for any locals who might return. They will be arrested immediately like the poor people and homeless were a year before the closure .
Please remember that absolutely no information from the corporate drones, FOCP, can be trusted. They told people that all of this was a little maintenance to help the trees-haha.
All the best,
Glenn

Spring is in the air, and me and some friends are wondering when Clark Park is scheduled to re-open. Does anyone know...?
