Baseball fields Baseball Fields Baseball Fields - and if you try to convert one Council Person Rivera will stop you - that's the way it is in Jersey City -

I had this sentiment when I started this post but now it’s confirmed that a lot of people feel the same. Why is it that councilman Rivera is so opposed to finding a solution, there must be some way to compromise and still have these fields available for little league but also used at other times so they’re not just sitting there empty for minimum of 6 months a year(if not more)

I met with him a few years back about converting one to a Passive Park - he actually would of supported it if we had found another space for a baseball field - he was willing to give one up as long as it was replaced with another - i believe this stems from his long time involvement with the youth baseball programs -
