Katrina Foley and Linda Dixon - Best Team for Costa Mesa Park Issue

The local paper, the Daily Pilot, calls the team, "A voice of reason."

Here is a breakdown from the Daily Pilot on just what it meant to the city residents to have Katrina Foley and Linda Dixon oppose the recent park issue:

"Actually, five of them that make up the Costa Mesa City Council, with special kudos to Katrina Foley and Linda Dixon, the most ardent opponents of a slapdash plan that would have designated 28 of the city’s 30 parks as “passive.”

What exactly would that have meant?

Groups of nine or more would have been prohibited from organizing activities such as soccer, Frisbee and you name it at public parks such as Wakeham, Wimbledon and Estancia.

“I see this report as a colossal waste of taxpayer money and time,” Foley said of a Parks and Recreation Commission document on the issue.

Mind you, Public Works Director Peter Naghavi estimated that more than 100 hours of staff time had been spent considering the issue."

Good job, Foley, Dixon and company!
