CC 5-13-19 #6 All-inclusive Playground at Jollyman Park_Written CommunicationsCyrah Caburian From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Follow Up Flag: Flag Status: Caryl Gorska <gorska@gorska.com> Monday, May 13, 2019 2:46 PM Steven Scharf; Liang Chao; Rod Sinks; Jon Robert Willey; Darcy Paul Timm Borden Magical Bridge playground Follow up Flagged Mayor Scharf, Vice Mayor Chao, and Council Members Paul, Sinks, and Willey: cc 5/13/19 Item #6 Creekside Park is a much better choice for the Magical Bridge playground for the following reasons: •Creekside Park is larger than Jollyman Park •Creekside has double the number of parking spaces of Jollyman (important because existing Bay Area all-inclusive playgrounds draw people from other cities) •Creekside is close to bus stops on both the 25 and 26 routes; Jollyman is much further from a bus route (one mile?)•Creekside is in a more dense neighborhood, so more people nearby will be able to enjoy it •Creekside is close to schools: Cupertino High School (with an active Best Buddies Club), Sedgwick Elementary, Eaton Elementary, and Hyde Middle School •Jollyman is in a neighborhood that already has more amenities than Creekside •Jollyman is being considered for a dog park, which could be threatening to users of the all-inclusive playground ( and could create an actual threat) AND, most of all, I am shocked that matter involving millions of dollars was pushed through by city staff without any semblance of community engagement, transparency, or accountability.

I have sent to the 'group email' as well as individuals to hopefully assure receipt of the message. I have been advised that not all of you are getting things sent to you, or that they are going to spam folders in some cases. Here is what I want to convey: I understand that you have been sent, or will be sent, a comprehensive email with well researched and compelling information from resident Rahul Vasanth regarding the location of Cupertino's proposed All Inclusive Park. Please read it carefully and fully. Rahul is a Library Commissioner and likely signed with 'Representing myself only', as has become the habit of many city commissioners. I can guarantee that the message Rahul is sending is the same sort of message that many residents would like you to 'hear', so I know that he is representing a large number of community members when requesting that Creekside Park be identified as the location for Cupertino's All Inclusive Park.
