Thank you. Mr president, um last week I talked a little about the parks and discussed nicolette.

A

Park- and I said I would continue that conversation and I am so the other side of great mills, road.

A

On willis road is another great park for everyone to use, and that is lancaster park.

A

And also the new passive park, we've invested a lot of money in lancaster park to put in turf fields.

A

To have numerous events down there, just like a couple weeks ago, we had the naacp with the.

A

Books, our back to back to school backpacks we're working hard on getting the pasta park up to date.

A

Getting the roads completed, ucac was using one of the old flat top homes as a site. We have the.

A

uh Memorial back there and I think again another thing that the folks in the county just don't see.

A

Is all the good things going on in that park? Also, I think when the passive park gets done,.

A

If you go back to governor ehrlich's days, that was the largest community development block.

A

Grant, I think, in the state of maryland, we have um walk parks, we have a beautiful lined cherry.

A

Trees in the spring, we have frisbee golf and then it all connects to another set of very.

A

Accommodating walking paths to lancaster park and we're also working diligently now with the navy.

A

To be able to expand and continue the lease agreement that we have with them, which I would.

A

Hope would be able to get completed before my term is done, and that way I can feel good for the next.

A

10 15 20 years that park and the amenities that it provides will continue to be available for not.

A

Only the citizens, but the navy, folks, etc. The young kids, who want to play football soccer, lacrosse.

A

All the things back there and there's even a dog park back there. Folks, if you haven't been.

A

Back there you want to walk your dogs, you have a nice beautiful dog parkway in the backside.

A

So I think, like I said many people think that lexington park has sort of been forgotten.

A

For amenities, but quite frankly, there's a lot of things to do in lux in the park and I'm glad I we.

A

Can be working together with the community and also with our various departments, to.

A

Continue to provide um a lot of good things back there for everyone to be able to use.

A

And I know that I'm away today, so I will conclude with that. So thank you.
