Committee to do a wide notification when they have a neighborhood meeting on
this issue, including people who will look down on the lights.
C. Juil White stated we need more youth sports facilities in the community.
He suggested the property across from Garden Road School, part of the proposed
amphitheater in South Poway, and Arbolitos Park.
Mayor Higginson cited what has been accomplished, including the joint use'
facilities with PUSD and the South Poway Sports Park and acknowledged there
will never be enough facilities. He urged the Committee to continue looking
and bring possibilities to the City Council and suggested they talk to PUSD
regarding improving fields at the elementary schools.

facility is lighted or not. Lighting increases the usage however there is a
lot of neighborhood opposition to lights. There may be some difficult choices
in the future.
