Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council

Motion Relating To The Location Of Ball Fields

Whereas the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council is in the process of developing a vision for North Gaffey Street; and

Whereas part of the draft vision includes the creation of a regional sports complex that would include the existing Field of Dreams and new baseball diamonds, in addition to open space, on land currently owned by the Sanitation Department of the city; and

Whereas the draft vision also includes a consistent setback of at least 20 feet on the west side of Gaffey; and

Whereas the Eastview Little League may be required to move as a result of the commercial development at the former DiCarlo site; and

Whereas the Eastview Little League has received $250,000 towards moving costs as a result of the settlement with Interstate Baking Company; and

Whereas creation of baseball fields on the East side of Gaffey would reduce the parking, traffic, and safety problems that exist at the present site; and

Whereas the re-location of the ball fields is currently under discussion with Target and the Eastview Little League and action may be required prior to the formal adoption of the Vision for North Gaffey by the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council;

Now therefore, the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council requests Councilwoman Hahn to explore with the Little League, Bureau of Public Works and Target the feasibility of creating baseball fields on a portion of the Sanitation Yard.
