LAST CHANCE TO INFLUENCE THE SCHOOL BOARD’S SALE OF MAPLELEAF FIELD AT N.E. 100TH STREET AND 32ND AVENUE

If you would like for the field to remain open space, hopefully a playing field with gardens and parking for the church, you can help by doing any or preferably ALL of the following IMMEDIATELY:

  • Have each adult in your household sign the Maple Leaf Field Open Space On-line Petition at: http://gopetition.com/info.php?petid=1994. If you do not have Internet access, contact 206-526-2970 and with your permission, we will go on-line and sign the petition for you.

  • Plan to attend the School Board’s hearing on whether to sell the property on Wednesday, May 7th at 4:00 p.m. at the John Stanford Center Auditorium, 2445 Third Avenue South, Seattle. To sign up to speak for three minutes, call 252-0040. To meet your neighbors and participate in a car pool, call: 206-526-2970.

  • Contact the School Board and let them know your reasons for wanting the field to remain open space. Ask them to retain ownership or at least delay the sale.

  • Please let the Open Space Committee know if you are planning on attending the hearing and/or have contacted the School Board. Indicate if you’d like to join the committee or be kept informed.
