We, the undersigned, call upon the County of San Mateo and the City of Menlo Park to re-open Flood Park.

Famous for its large native Oak and Bay trees, Flood Park is a 21-acre retreat located in the midst of urban development.  Flood Park has always been a community center, where people from diverse surrounding neighborhoods played, celebrated and visited.  Prior to its closure, it served thousands of people weekly and was an anchor of our neighborhoods.  As a boarded-up park it will become a magnet for crime, an eyesore, and a detriment to property values and the community.  

Flood Park is currently closed due to pipeline repairs by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission.  However, the County of San Mateo Parks Commission has recommended its indefinite closure as a cost-saving measure.  

Please sign this petition if you support the reopening of Flood Park!  These signatures may be presented to government officials and posted on this organization's website.
