Redwood pool swap for Sunkiss Grove Community Center

Summary

Councilman Charles wants Redwood to drop the Pepper Park pool and put roughly $3-5 million toward rebuilding the run-down Sunkiss Grove center that houses the food pantry and senior programs. It's early — the developer must come back, the community must be consulted, and a site plan change would restart the approval process.
