I will email you. Please continue to try to gather support for a skatepark by going to local skateboard supply shops, athletic shops, and schools to see if you can put up flyers and start a meetup.com or a facebook support page. If you have a support page, please post the site here on this thread.Also, please get at least two council members in your city to support you in your efforts.Best wishes!
