A PLAN TO EXPAND TORO PARK IN SOUTH SALINAS HAS SOME AREA RESIDENTS CONCERNED. DURING A MEETING LAST NIGHT AT TORO PARK’S FIRE STATION, NEIGHBORS AND PARENTS VOICED THE NEED FOR THE RENOVATION, CLAIMING THERE ISN’T ENOUGH SPACE FOR CHILDREN TO PLAY. SOME COMPLAINED ABOUT THE PROPOSED PLAN SAYING IT WOULD PUSH OUT OTHER EVENTS HELD AT THE PARK AND WOULD REQUIRE PAID PARKING PERMITS. FUNDING FOR THE 250-THOUSAND-DOLLAR PROJECT CAME FROM PRIVATE DONATIONS.
