JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -

"I think we'll find a compromise. I think this issue has been unnecessarily divisive. I think everyone has the same goal ? to improve a neighborhood park and make it available to kids who want to use it and also have other community members use it. I think we'll find a resolution. I wish that it hadn't attracted the attention and the controversy that it has because at the end of the day I think we all have to same goal," Peyton said.

City Council is expected to vote on the issue Tuesday. If the council sees fit, the lease of the Simonds Johnson Community Center would be turned over to Boselli.

Lee did not attend Monday's public forum at the community center.
