Dear Editor,
Recent arguments over the Brandon Township Park beg rejoinder. Living across the street, I observe its regular use on a daily basis. Not to mention, my family and I use it often due to its locale. As newly arrived residents in 2008, we did not have an opportunity to weigh in on whether or not we should have a park, but it does not appear that those in favor are the only ones using it fee-free.
For those who don’t know, but still feel free enough to make ignorant comments, if Brandon Township does not fulfill its end of the bargain, they will have to repay the money previously given them to assist in building the park. Yes, that is so that someone with less ability than most taxpayers can do something besides sit in the house all winter, staring at the TV or worse.
I feel so bad about the uproar over this park that I pulled thistle out barehanded in the play area the other day. I guess there are always two sides to every argument: those who know and care, and those who don’t know and don’t care.
