Founders Park South will be destroyed if we don’t show up and make our voices heard. Please join us at the city council meeting in city hall on April 4th at 6pm and show your support!!! There will be an opportunity to speak (but is certainly not required, showing your support would say enough)
PLEASE LET’S FIND ANOTHER LOCATION FOR THE PICKLE BALL COURTS!!!
I personally am super excited for pickle ball courts. What I am not in favors of is ruining a beautiful quiet space for people to enjoy. There are no natural parks in Aventura, No quiet space to enjoy the sounds of silence. This park has help so many children, adults and elderly reflect and heal from the external chaos this world throws at us. My children attend ACES. The noise of the loud clonk when the ball bounces off the ground combined with the strong language and grunts from some players, will be a constant for them as well as the surrounding residential buildings. Then what, will they put up ugly black noise blocking fabric around the courts? The traffic it will cause for neighboring buildings like the Camden, Hidden Bay, and Aventura Marina 1 & 2. I realize that Aventura is small and there are not many other options but please let’s find another solution. I believe it is imperative to have green spaces for quiet nature, reflection and healing. We do not need more perfectly groomed hedges and concrete.
