My name is Bertha Muzquiz and I am a mother of a 12 year old daughter and a one year old and I reside in Pharr, Texas. My petition is in regards to the P-EBT food benefits that have been given “only to children and young adults that attend a public school.” I am advocating for children just like mine, that are been homeschooled for various reasons and because they are homeschool they do not qualify or are eligible to benefit from the P-EBT program. I believe that it is unfair that because my kid and other children are not enrolled in a public school entity, they are not able to obtain the food benefits. Kids that are homeschooled need to eat too! Homeschooling a child doesn’t mean necessarily that the parents are wealthy or that we don’t struggle to make ends meet. In my case I had to withdraw my daughter due to all the bullying that she went through and for not been able to learn. I strongly believe that my child and other children that are in the same situation deserve and should be able to participate and benefit from the P-EBT program. I hope that this message gets reviewed by the right person. Thank you. Attentively Bertha Muzquiz

It has come to my attention that a portion of Maple Hill Park is planned to be taken over by Maple Hill Cemetery. I strongly request that you reconsider this decision. The athletic fields of Maple Hill park are greatly enjoyed by the surrounding neighborhoods particularly among dog owners. The high housing density and small lot sizes in both Five Points and Blossomwood mean this park is a wonderful place to let our pets run off leash. In fact, a 12 year tradition of 8:00 AM "Dog Church" has been communing every Sunday to enjoy this beautiful field. Additionally I and others use the athletic fields for frisbee, soccer, picnics and other activities. I humbly emplore the city to not only preserve this green space as a recreational park, but perhaps even augment it into an official dog park. This beautiful field was an old rock quarry and is surrounded on three sides with rock walls covered in greenery. Additionally it has a wonderful year-round spring that with a little stone work would be a wonderful water feature for both man and animal alike.  Please keep the athletic fields as part of the Huntsville Parks and Recreation and not give it over to Maple Hill Cemetery.
