    I visit this neighborhood often and have friends who live in the area. Wonderful park, so glad to see more recreation areas in Fresno! But this name doesn’t lend any prestige to this center, and doesn’t align with the wishes of local residents. A survey was taken on potential name option, why should the park not be named by the community?

    Why even have a survey for names if you are not only not going to use them but also going to go with something that wasn't on the survey and doesn't represent the community at all?
    Everyone knows where Woodward Park is, everyone knows where Roeding Park is, or Kerney Park. No one has an issue with those names. Names of places are important, and this chosen name isn't right for a project of this majesty or important for the community.

    This is an uninspired and clinical name for a park that is meant to become a staple of our community. The "sports complex" part of the name serves to describe a portion of the Facility. However, it doesnt represent other aspects (dog park, community garden, playground, splash pad, picnic areas, etc). Naming it a "sports complex" in title is a disservice to the community in that it obscures the other amenities offered to the community. Additionally, naming it an uninspired name like "Southeast Fresno" does not promote name recognition of the park and does not promote the joy that this park will bring to the community. Any of the polled options (Peach Park, Seed and Stone Park, Heritage Harvest Park, etc) would be lovely names for this community park. As it is currently proposed, the park name is a cold, bland misnomer that would be hard to direct interest to by name alone. Southeast Fresno deserves nice, attractive amenities--even in name.
