Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Sunnyvale public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Las Palmas Park Renovation
The city's planned renovation of Las Palmas Park has split the community, with some residents opposing a dedicated cricket pitch, fencing and lights. Parks Commissioner Prakash Giri has been personally attacked over his cricket advocacy, prompting Mayor Klein and multiple council members to call for civility. Community meetings are set for November 16 and 18, and council will decide the design in the new year.
Lakewood Park Public Art Selection
The council picked James Peterson's glass 'Apricot' sculpture for the renovated Lakewood Park, passing over the Arts Commission's top choice. The art budget is about $140,690 from the park construction budget.
