From the transcript

So this assembly even recognized in November that it needed to be a more balanced board, and these are the people most familiar with the needs for road, parking, and trailhead improvements in the relevant service areas. Second, that any official group involved in evaluating or recommending projects for CASA, whether it be an advisory group or formal commission, must include a balance of representation between parks advocates and LARSA. Sorry, my writing And then to better ensure that both prongs of CASA's mission, improved access and ameliorated neighborhood impacts, are adequately addressed. And also that the roles and responsibilities of the new advisory group or formal commission and policies and procedures by which it will be governed and the ethical standards to which it will be held accountable should be much more clearly established to ensure fair public input and fair and transparent decision-making that fosters confidence in the CASA process. Um, sorry, our neighborhood supports CASA, but I think in order to succeed and continue, it needs to be balanced and fair.
