Length but there is a nice shorter executive summary. I encourage everyone to look at it and get any comments or feedback to it. At this point were trying to correct any errors in it, the consultants have put some of their feedback into it. I have a position of not intervening with the consultants opinion, their opinion will be their opinion by the end of the day.

Beautifully renovated playground in the sites that we have, but we do have this pot of money were hoping to leverage so the short answer is there is more to come on that. Yeah, my only point being i dont like doing things twice so if we mobilize the resources for say any one of the tier one parks, whether we could maybe leverage that think bigger and use the opportunity that we have to expand parks, improve parks beyond the scope that we originally imagined.

On a personal note my children grew up around Merced Heights playground and we remember i remember the tiny tot s program which gave me two hours of Mental Health therapy just having my kids provided a safe fun and educational activity for my children, and so with that we support this and we adopt the Task Force Report ...

One is what is the current replacement cycle for assets a...
