(Aug. 23, 2017, 8:50 a.m.) -- Mayor Robert Garcia acknowledged at a meeting of LB's Parks & Recreation Commission that the issue of equity in the availability or non-availability of park programs in various parts of the city is real, but said it's also partly a matter of public perception and partly a matter of communication. LBREPORT.com provides a transcript of his words below.
Mayor Garcia voiced his view near the end of roughly fifteen minutes of non-agendized remarks to the Commission on Aug. 17, in which he discussed mainly matters not concerning parks or recreation. The Mayor, currently seeking re-election, discussed port cargo, the local economy and jobs, said the city is "doing great" and voiced his views on LB crime and proposed increased density, the latter two separately reported by LBREPORT.com here and here.

LBREPORT.com provides below the portion of the Mayor's remarks, delivered without notes, regarding park programming and equity below. Mayor Garcia: ...There's still a lot of people in this community that need support. Our parks programming is a really important place where that happens. Programming that's happening in our community centers and in our senior centers and in our parks is really important.
