A large number of us who live in Chapel Hill feel and understand this need. As things stand now, our park services are underfunded and inadequate relative to the size and wealth of the community. (The example of Wilson, NC, where I used to live, a poor city, puts what we Chapel Hillians have in park services to shame.) Parks and their services make life better for everyone in the community.

Ryan is the council liaison for parks and rec and Searing is a new member and outspoken advocate for recreation.
The “sharks” are five council members who petitioned the town to restart planning for a possible park, saying selling some of it will speed up the project. What they mean is the town has no money and no ability to issue bonds for years. That’s why it’s been stalled since 2017 when hundreds participated in early planning efforts after rec bond monies were used to pay for most of it. The makeup of the council and town management are clearly different now. (from June 2022 Community Sports News).
