PUBLIC COMMENT:
Bill Jubb, 3993 Highland, stated he had read the files on the Sammis project and wondered whether the
plans for Leg0 might change before it was built, as this project changed. He also stated the Carlsbad
Ranch Specific Plan contained no reference to the Leg0 park.
Geoff Bell, 3686 Highland Drive, spoke of his concerns about the gang activities in Carlsbad. He felt the
$36,000 left in the Leg0 account should be given to Parks and Recreation to start more programs for the
youngsters in the City.
Peder Norby, 7371 Viar Avenue, spoke in favor of the Leg0 park, stating the park in Denmark is beautiful
and an object of civic pride.
Staff reported that the Sammis project is in for an amendment at this time, and the only use that was
allowed was the residential section, which has been built.
Mayor Lewis stated Carlsbad has not been selected as the site for the Leg0 park, and therefore detailed
information is not yet available. When and if an application is submitted for such a park, the review would
start and public hearings would be held.
Police Chief Vales stated that the Police Department is monitoring gang activity in Carlsbad and working
to define the problem.
