List specific activities that members of your household would like to see provided by the City of Manvel. Splash pad, park with nice playgrounds, but then again the issue will be that the city of manvel won't maintain it, for example have you ever visited Criox Park? it is never mowed, and additionally this is why we quit playing soccer for Manvel because the field conditions were silly and the coaches had to mow the fields. It would be nice to bring entertainment business into Manvel. We have a PDZ zone requirement for new business development, yet the city doesnt enforce simple mowing in the major corridors of our city, other cities do a much better job of this. - the Eddie's ballroom site will be vacant and grown up for years before the city does anything with it, and even if they do it wont be used because the city growth is not going in that direction, and who is going to drive over to see a pasture with concrete, they should have used it for a recreation center - wedding venue location like Brazos Springs - we could use it for many things like Lions club meetings, etc...then again the surrounding cities have all of this so Manvel can continue to be small and not worry about spending money - citizens should focus growth with youth sports facililties - a place where they can play sports of all kinds this would keep our kids in our city and benefit our economics much quicker than investing in other recreational complexes. build a ball park - oh wait the Lions club is doing this in Iowa Colony because Manvel couldn't get ti done, my kids will be grown before this happens. Build a football complex like the Dad's club - oh wait the city will just have us use the school facilities - or have our citizens go to Pearland. Manvel High School Football is great but the city does not have youth facility? Softball, Basketball, Volleyball? - all this brings revenue in when games an tournaments are booked.
