Open Space in Pasadena

We are all aware that there is a housing shortage in Pasadena and California. We also know that in order to help house our residents, more apartments and condos are being built throughout our city. But we also know that a city without open space will become a slum and none of us want such an outcome. That is why the proposal by Livable Pasadena to repurpose unused recreational space by schools is a wonderful idea. It will allow more places for children to play, for community gardens to develop and for people to find tranquil places to relax and enjoy the remarkable climate of California. Let's make that as much a priority as we are now making the building of new condos and apartments. We need a balance of nature and housing. That's the Pasadena way.

I would appreciate this being forwarded and/or read at the meeting Dear City Council and PUSD Board Members,
I am a long standing resident of South Euclid Avenue near Allendale Park.
The fact that Allendale Elementary School has been determined to be surplus property by PUSD creates a unique opportunity to expand Allendale Park into a full one block park. It's current uses (softball, pickelball, library) are heavily used and there is precious current space to read a book, have a picnic and/or just relax. District 7 has virtually no park space and I strongly believe that all of the Allendale Elementary land should become park land for the common use.
Interestingly, Blair High School has expansive athletic land, a portion of which can be converted into housing that would help support PUSD's many objectives.
Thank you for your consideration.

Re: PUSD properties
Dear Mayor Gordo and City Council Members:

We are writing tonight to address the use of PUSD properties that will no longer be used as a school. We believe that this is a great opportunity to create more open space. Pasadena is on track to create many higher density housing projects, and the city will receive park fees associated with the new development. Would PUSD be willing to allow the city to purchase any unneeded properties for open space? We think that the community would benefit from a map of the PUSD properties in question so that needed open space could be analyzed. For example, Allendale School could provide critically needed park space for the South Fair Oaks area, which has been designated for many new housing units. Access to open green space is important, and these properties would provide an excellent opportunity to increase access to open green spaces for all residents of Pasadena.
Thank you,
Megan Foker,
On behalf of Livable Pasadena
