My childeren have used Rotary Park every year
since we moved into a home across the street.
For the last 8 years we have enjoyed summer
evenings outside while the children play on
the play set. I myself played on the same play
set when I was a kid. Removing this parkjust
because its a small financial burden and our
city politicians say they "never see anyone
there" is a terrible excuse. I would rather see
the park kept and maintained so that my
children, and many others, can continue to
have a place to go in our neighborhood that
provides a play space. Yards are great but not
always great for play if you don't have
equipment or a large enough yard for any. If it
costs to much to mow the lawn and replace a
few parts on a play set then you need to
reevaluate where your spending is happening
and cut out the bonuses and extra pay for city
officials, or stop spending money on
"beautification" projects that don't bring any
actual value to the city, and cause issues with
traffic flow. (Center Street)
Please don't remove a good play space from
our community. It needs just a small amount
of TLC and willing officials to keep it
maintained and safe.
