In response to the inquiries and concerns of Sharon Noel and Jo Terrusa, Ward, Jacobsen, and Gillette further clarified the community involvement process, the property involved, and staff recommendation, and emphasized that no design decisions have been presented or agreed upon, and approximately ten community meetings will be scheduled to solicit community input. In response to Donna Ward's concerns and request for information, Jacobsen and Ward again clarified the recommendation, the Request For Proposal process, and the community involvement process, and stated that Jacobsen and Lange were appointed to the Waverly Adult School Access Issues Committee. Jacobsen said a written statement card was received pertaining to Waverly Park and the position set forth will be taken under evaluation at the appropriate time. Gillette noted that if the writer chose, the writer could speak under the Public Comments section of the agenda.

In response to Terry Jacobi's inquiry, Jacobsen said that public meetings will be well publicized and scheduled throughout the community.
