Submitted by Tim Mahoney – Southern California Gas Company

 

Greetings all...since I was not able to attend the Scenario session, I

wanted to submit my preferences electronically. As a member of the

Goleta Beach Working Group I support restoring the beach, park, grass

area and parking spaces as they were before the erosion stared several

years ago. I support beach nourishment and would like to see structures

to help retain sand (the Ed de la Torre plan). I do not support any form

of managed retreat or lowering the LOS provided by the Parks Dept.

Instead, I believe the 1.5 million people who visit /enjoy Goleta Beach

Park every year deserve more active recreation such as volleyball,

horseshoes, beach side basketball/handball courts as well as more

grass/park, BBQ/picnic tables, on-site parking space and restroom

facilities. My apologies for missing the past meeting, I was away on Gas

Company business. See you all at the next meeting. It is a privilege to

serve on the committee with you.
