    While all good proposals, I think it would be more helpful to grade responses to categories like "critical need," vs. "nice to have" or "needed now" vs. "eventually."

    I support incorporating a makerspace, shared workspaces, and enhanced technology resources at the Manhattan Heights Community Center. This location is well-suited for these uses and can provide meaningful access to creative, educational, and professional tools for residents.

    I am opposed to adding new community space uses in Polliwog Park.

    As a city that values environmental leadership, we should prioritize access options that reduce reliance on cars. Library patrons should be encouraged to walk, bike, or use microtransit, and I do not support adding additional parking for library use.

    For larger library or cultural events, Mira Costa High School offers a more appropriate venue with the capacity to accommodate those needs.

    Thank you for your consideration.
