Honorable Council,
As you have heard the popularity of DOLA's. I attend the Jollyman DOLA almost daily and now Linda Vista as well in the mornings.
Over the past year I have seen a real need for a few benches at Jollyman. We are there for a little over an hour. In the winter, right after sunset, it is very dark. I think I lost 10 balls after hours and we all have to put light collars on our dogs to be able to see them
well. I understand that lights back there might be an issue to residents living up against the fence and running electricity would be pretty expensive. I am suggesting Dog Park Solar Lighting. They are much cheaper.
It is not just a luxury, I believe it is also a safety issue. We cannot tell who is approaching in the dark.

This one is for info but cheaper ones can be found.

I suggest the first one because it is shorter. I think a short light under 6 ft so that neighbors do not complain would be ideal. One with either switch that the last person can turn off or one with a sensor.
RE: the Dark Skies ordinance, this would only be for an hour after sunset and then turned off.
Lights would be in the few thousands range.
I urge you to consider lights and benches minimally for Jollyman Park.
Thank you for your consideration,
Tessa Parish

Subject: Fwd: Pix of house
I found that this house pictured below at the entrance of BlackBerry Farm is also owned by the
city.
A resident told me that the city purchased that property a few years ago.
Please include that in the list of properties the city own for discussion so we have a complete
list.
Thanks!

The top part is the house I'm talking about. You can see it on the right hand side
right before you enter the parking lot of Blackberry farm.
