Save Polley Field
SIGN THE PETITION
Sebastopol City Planning Department
has been devising a plan to remodel Ives
park in an effort to restore the creek.
They've come up with three potential
configurations which will be presented
to City Council when they meet on
February 1st. Option A and B preserve
Polley field. Option C involves the
COMPLETE REMOVAL OF POLLEY FIELD
at Ives and is the one that the Planning
Commission is recommending! They
must not choose Option C and eliminate
one of Sebastopol's gems, Polley Field.
Why is this important?
Everybody wants to see Calder Creek thrive again,

but it can also happen without destroying our
beloved baseball field. Polley Field has been around
since 1957 and is easily one of the best and most
unique little league fields in all of Sonoma County.
Located in the heart of the city, encapsulated by
redwood trees, there really isn't anything like it. It's home to generations of Sebastopol Little Leaguers
and now their children. It's also the home to one of
the longest running coed slow pitch softball
leagues in the county with many who have been
playing since the 70's. This field gets the most use
out of any in Sebastopol and it would truly be a
tragedy if the City Council chose to remove it.
