I understand that there is a need for more tennis courts in Pleasanton, but there is an equal need for open space that kids and families can use for spontaneous play, practice, picnics, parties, etc. Building new courts in the middle of the Tennis park will make some tennis players happy, but you will end up with a neighborhood of angry residents. You will be taking away an open area that the residents in this neighborhood love. I know this puts you in a tough spot. However, there may be win -win solutions that will make everyone happy, that both preserve the green space in the center of the Tennis park and add more tennis courts in Pleasanton. But you can only find a win -win solution if you take the opportunity to look for it. Could the courts be built in a different part of the Tennis Park? Could more courts be built at a different location in Pleasanton? So I urge the city council to preserve the green space at the park and not construct the new courts on that field, but instead continue to look for and study solutions that would be acceptable to everyone, tennis players and residents of the neighborhood around the park. I know that this will cost the city money. No one wants the city to lose money. After all, that is our money. But I consider that part of the cost of finding the best solution for all. Please don't build the new tennis courts now. Please preserve the field for everyone and search for a better solution.
