facility and if there would be any type of operation taking place that would be
detrimental to the neighborhoods surrounding this area.

Dear Clermont City ~ncil;
We the undersigned wish to bring to your attention the severe
overcrowding the soccer community is subjected to at the
palatlakaha Recreational Complex. We only have the use of one
field which is without lighting. In fact 'it's the only unlit
field at the complex. The baseball fields, the softball
field, the tennis courts, the volley ball pit, the fitness
trail, the basketball court and the raquetball court all are
lit for after dark activities. There have been occasions when
as many as four soccer teams have had to practice
simultaneously on the same field. The boys under 19 year old
team has never played a home game because the league plays at
night! If. we had a lit field we could hold soccer practice in
shifts, i.e. 4:~-5:3¢ p.m., 5:3¢-7:~ p.m., & 7:~-8:3~ p.m.
In July 1994 the South Lake Soccer club hosted The Moroccan
National Youth Team in a daytime match. The heat index at
game time was in excess of 115 degrees.
We propose both a short term and a long term solution to this
grave problem:
In the short term;
1. The immediate designation of an existing lighted field as
dual use to allow after dark soccer practices and games.
The senior league baseball field at the palatlakaha
Recreational complex or Bishop Field on ~ast Ave. are
each adequate in size to serve this purpose.
2. The installation of lights at the soccer field at the
Palatkaha Recreational Complex.
In the long term;
The construction of the proposed Hancock Road sports
complex with the three soccer fields as proposed by The
City Of clermont.
Thank you for your consideration of this urgent need.

Dear Clermont City Council;
We the undersigned wish to bring to your attention .the severe
overcrowding the soccer community is subjected to at the
Palatlakaha Recreational Complex. We only have the use of one
field which is without lighting. In fact it's the only unlit
field at the complex. The baseball fields, the softball
field, the tennis courts, the volley ball pit, the fitness
trail, the basketball court and the raquetball court all are
lit for after dark activities. There have been occasions when
as many as four soccer teams have had to practice
simultaneously on the same field. The boys under 19 year old
team has never played a home game because the league plays
night! If we had a lit field we could hold soccer practice in
shifts, i.e. 4:~-5:3~ p.m., 5:3~-7:~ p.m., & 7:~-8:3~ p.m.
In July 1994 'the South Lake Soccer Club hosted The Moroccan
National Youth Team in a daytime match. The heat index at
game time was in excess of 115 degrees.~'_
