Presidio plan info
When I wrote the Help the Presidio post I was unable to verify many of the key facts of the upcoming meeting. I can find no public notice of the meeting. It's not clear who is meeting and for what purpose. All I have is a second hand report of an email from the Vikings Soccer officials.
I dug a little deeper and have found some documents relating the the Tennessee Hollow Watershed Project which does relate specifically to the plans for Morton field. Among the project documents I found lots of information in the Tennessee Hollow Watershed Project Scoping Materials where I grabbed the snippet of a map you see here. I'm not sure how up to date the information is. It looks a bit old. But that document refers to the elimination of Morton. However, among the plans described are also plans to restore Pop Hicks field and add a larger soccer field at that location.
I would love to learn more. Perhaps the impact is not as dire? If you know about the plans, or if you attend the meeting and have news to report, please leave a comment here and fill us in.

Oddly enough, just last weekend I was bushwhacking throuh dense ivy in a eucalyptus grove next to Goode Field, looking for a stray soccer ball. It would be great to remove the non-native ivy and eucalyptus. And if they replace Morton with a new field, that also would be a positive change. Morton is small and oddly sloped. The team attacking the N. goal aways has an advantage!!
The Chronicle ran an editorial on the topic yesterday, so they must have gotten the same email you did ;-)
The editorial is here.
