Dear ‘Town Council Members,

Community Centre renovation. Because of a previously scheduled appointment, L Was
‘not able to attend the council meeting, but 1 would like to express my support for the
idea of expanding the lighting in the park. While the cost of that project is likely 10 be
reasonable compared to that of the other possibilities, the improved lighting would
increase the usability of Westfall Bark and would benefit many people, especially in Une
dark winter months. A well-lit, nicely maintained park is an obvious source of civic
pride, and something we could all appreciate, | hope the council will seriously consider
this project,
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Gruber,
1 was glad to hear that the latest renovation project was completed with money to spare.
Although the Community Centre does sponsor activities for citizens of all ages, it is, for
the most part, visited by adolescents and parents with children. Therefore, | would like to
Suggest thatthe next project focus on « place more often used by Eldonbury's older
people.
‘The public brary is natural gathering place for older adults, and a new entryway, would
provide a dry, protected place for people to chat or wait for transportation. It would be a
noticeable improvement, likely to be applauded by citizens who did not feel that they
‘gained much from the improvements to the Community Centre. In April, when the votes
‘are cast, please consider this suggestion to balance the interests of all members of the
Eldonbury public.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
‘Thank you,
