Lot of troubles & a kick to the grass

MEETING: The Reseda Neighborhood Council's General Meeting (unlinkable and uncopyable text, lead item on left as of this writing) is a pairing with the Community Redevelopment Agency to host a town hall-type meeting for a discussion about the privately owned parking lots south of Sherman Way, between Lindley and Etiwanda Avenues. They'll give you food with a buffet hosted by La Tortilla Loca, located next door to this special meeting set for tonight at 7 p.m. at Canoas, 18134 Sherman Way.

Community Advisory Committee for the CRA for Reseda meets the 3rd Thur, 6 p.m. at 19040 Vanowen (they spell it Van Owen on this pdf, circa '02). Info: 757-2163.

What's has the CRA done for us lately? :::::Ed. note-- Bless them.

Also, the second item on the RNC homepage reports on the quashing of a move to put soccer fields in Wilbur Park (police station and library adjacent), where in the previous decade trees and rocks were put into open spaces, inhibiting but not detering the regular pickup soccer games there. Despite those obstacles and any still to come, people will want to use the park for soccer, as this foto shows of a dad practicing soccer fundamentals with his 2 boys among the bigger trees there.

Back before Prop. 13, public schools had ball fields and courts available for the citizenry to put public assets to use when they'd otherwise be sitting idle.

If people didn't need soccer fields they wouldn't be using Wilbur Park.:::::
