Council worse. Thank you. Council President This Soundview light are the same view park project has been. We've been working on it for a while and I'm actually pretty excited that this is going to finally happen. The proposed facility is a city facility as defined by SEAL Municipal Code 2384 A The C l City Council has the authority to waive or modify a development standard for a city facility under the code. Parks has demonstrated that a proposed light pole height is necessary to light the playfield sufficiently and that the height of the poles will reduce light, spillage and glare. Parks has demonstrated that the light, spillage and glare to the adjacent residential properties will be further mitigated by shielded light fixtures and existing mature trees. I should add that there are ten other improvements that are going to go on in this park, including the removal and laying down of new turf. A construction management plan approved by the sale Department of Transportation would address construction impacts related to construction, traffic, parking noise and the Committee on Cirque developed public assets in their communities passed unanimously and we asked that the city council today adopt Clarke file 314403 as granted. Thank you very much. Any questions or comments? Councilmember Johnson, just. Want to say thanks to Councilmember Walls for getting this one across the finish line. We first put this in the budget in 2016, folks. And now it's in 2019. Simple little things like this sometimes take a lot longer than we want them to, but an exciting investment for folks who are anxious to get access to our play fields all throughout the city. And I just want to add to. Thank you. Councilman Johnson, that besides the turf and the new lights, there's so many other amenities, including making it ADA accessible, which those are all things that we pushed hard for so we're happy about.
