Dear Councilmembers:
RE: State Grant for Boysen Park Support
As the City of Anaheim undertakes the renovation and expansion of the historic Boysen Park
(Park), I write to express my strong support for accepting the $15 million dollar state grant for this
important project.
Boysen Park is a landmark in the City of Anaheim, providing a critical green and natural space for
playgrounds, little league baseball, picnics, tennis courts and much more. Boysen Park remains
one of the most well utilized and celebrated open spaces in the community. While community
members continue to meet and discuss potential funding uses, the state grant will provide much-
needed enhancements t
As someone who has fond memories of playing little league baseball on the fields of Boysen Park,
I personally understand the positive impacts of having an open and accessible place for children
and community members. I am eager to see the new generations benefit from this iconic park.
For these reasons, I ask the City of Anaheim to accept the $15 million dollar state grant for Boysen
Park. For any questions regarding this request, please contact my staff Nathaly Teran at 916-319-
2068 or Nathaly.teran@asm.ca.gov.
In Service,
