Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding Resolution 10- 25 -12 -01 to rename Southwood Athletic Park in College Station to Brian Bachmann Community Park. Cody Whitten, 3207 Liesl C ourt, said he has been hearing lots of stories about Brian Bachmann's service to the community. Although Brian had done a lot for the community, no one realized exactly how much. We need to do something to honor him. It is apparent that Southwood Park is the place where he spent so much time working with kids. Mr. Whitten worked with the Little League board to begin the process of naming the park after Brian. He appreciates the Council's support. Jeff Kersten, 4407 Rocky Meadows, read a letter, attached, requesting renaming the Southwood Community Park after Brian Bachmann. Damon Slaydon, President of College Station Little League, thanked the Council for the opportunity to honor an individual that has had such a positive impact on so many facets of the community. There are three words that represent the Little League motto: courage, fkIrw loyalty and character. To honor Brian by renaming a sports complex after him is appropriate. Not only does it represent Little League baseball, but it also represents the man that gave his life for us in the performance of his duty. He asked the Council to dedicate Southwood Park to recognize the legacy of Brian Bachmann, so that we may reflect on a real life hero who embodied courage, loyalty, and character.
