Hi folks, it's been a long time and I hope all have been safe and well.

Passing on the news that the Mayor is making an announcement on Parcel 5 today at 2:30pm - early indications are that it will indeed be greenspace, we are intrigued to learn more.

Question
We have one good idea to get a permission to manage the land using an existing legal frame work of the City, but either the City granting a permit or not is largely depending on how much supports we can get from the community.

Money is important, but the most important thing is that how many people are willing to sign up volunteer works to manage the land.

So another question

If we can get a permit for the city to manage the land, are you willing to volunteer for your time and skills for maintaining the land?

1. Yes, sure. I will sign up for volunteer

2. I rather donate money instead

3. I rather just go down the events like Jazz fest

You opinion is very important for us. Please write you answers on the comment below. Thanks
