The Sheldon field, as I'm sure many of us continue to tell you, is a wonderful place as it exists now and is <br /> used continually. If it is telly f+aneed off; as is proposed as a solution to current parking issues, it will no <br /> longer be a user - friendly area and will very soon fall into disrepair— weeds growing all along the cement <br /> Page Two <br /> line of the fence (weeds in the track fenceline now are totally ignored), fencing being cut bypecple who <br /> either aren't willing to walk to a gate which teary or tray not be unlocked, or who just want to destroy <br /> something. Right now the field is open and beautifully maintained and is apositiveto us. Ato mpts to <br /> address we negative (traf ic/ arking) mate a different negative. Also it's difficult for me to understarud <br /> how dosing off(via a fenced athletic field) a significant portion of an apes space creates more open <br /> space, as officials are trying to convince us. <br /> As you make your decision, pease hear us. Please visit often the schools to set what activity already <br /> exists =dm what level the areas arc being used, 1 can't believe there isn't an area in Eugene that can't be <br /> used for this purpose and that will serve everyone well. /recognize that yours is a difficult position to <br /> hold and 1 recognize that we all mot give some, However,) believe the residents in the Sheldon area are <br /> already giving their fair share and the athletic community can be a bit more reasonable as to WANT and <br /> NEED. <br /> At 54, my life is not what 1 thought it would bettor do 1 have everything that 1 WANT; probably <br /> , countless folks would agree with that. However, Intake the bog of what 1 have and 1 think Ws time the <br /> City and 41 did the same. Thank you for your consideration, <br /> Sincerely, • <br /> +Sly -� 1 w4eteve.,L., is Gillmgs <br /> 227O Jeppesen Acres Road <br /> Eugene, OR 97401 <br /> 343 -7305 <br /> • <br /> • <br />
