IMMEDIATE RELEASE TO BE FORWARDED AND SHARED
Monday, 16 August 2011
A STATEMENT BY
The Honorable Charles R. Samuels, Councilman,
Richmond City Council, North Central 2nd District
Councilman Samuels encourages regional cooperation and deliberate speed in construction of new Richmond Baseball Diamond
“Earlier this year, I convened a series of well attended community planning meeting ‘charrettes’ to help city residents and businesses design a plan for the future of the Boulevard, including the Richmond Baseball Diamond. The results of these meetings will be released at a District meeting I am holding on September 22, 2011 at 5:30 pm at the Hermitage, located at 1600 Westwood Avenue.
Most folks in my district, with whom I speak, express an understanding that a new baseball diamond is needed and that the location of the current Diamond is appropriate and preferred.
While funding issues remain, I encourage the City Administration to move expeditiously while maintaining the spirit of regional cooperation that this project requires.”
The Honorable Charles R. Samuels, Councilman, Richmond City Council, North Central 2nd District
