My wife and I are totally opposed to taking away public park lands. Once the park lands are gone they are gone forever.
What a legacy to leave our children. Let the developer find private land to put up their version of Disneyland.
Why anyone in their right mind would even consider such a foolish move, to allow a private developer to steal much needed parkland is beyond us.
I don’t think city council was voted in with that mandate. Let them have a look at the 2002 referendum.
Private developers should not dictate to the public what they want to do. Afterwards, it will become a cash cow to the developers because of the freebies associated with it. Makes me think: why city council would even consider it?
And what about Joe Ordinary Citizen who paid for it out of his/her pocket (taxes) and then have to pay to get inside this labyrinth of amusement of Wally World.
Give yourself a shake council and throw the park proposal into basket 13. Put an end to this very ridiculous request.
