| Add this to the mix, DC & BS wanted to wait to order the playground equipment which would have cost the Town an additional % more. Thank goodness this didn't happen because of a 3-2 vote or we could be adding this extra cost to the list if they got their way. Last edited on Jan 6th, 2006 04:21 pm by Skiddles

| The increase was 5 to 8% for the playground equipment if ordered after Jan.1st. That's an additional $2,000. Thanks NWO

| Skiddles - I think the point on the playground equipment is they are trying to derail the whole park. This money is in the bank designated for the park. There has been no tax levied for the park, there have been dozens and dozens of meetings held with volunteers and experts from all over the state with dozens of people involved over the past 8 years but these two new council members who have been involved in this town for no more then 2 years know what is best for us. They have hoodwinked the poputation in this town and are systimactically humiliating and degrading the very people who are responsible for the Town being the desitination that it is. Now they have started in on the Lighting ordinance last night which to my way of thinking is just one more indication of their lack of respect or care for the enviornment.

You said it Fat Pap.
Crackah, please do keep a list of all the unneccisary spending, at the rate they are going, there may be no more money left for the things that citizens want.
Wonder if BS ever considered how the rest of council would feel about her actions as one of the towns representatives. It will reflect on all of the council when word gets out on what happened with Trevarrow.

Thanks for your clear eyes Jane. This sounds so radical to me and most unbelievable!
If this is the case, it would seem that they (THE CONCERN CITIZENS) really don't care or give a darn about the town or the efforts and time of many, many hard working people. In my option, this would be a blatant disrespect for others! It would be self-absorbed and destructive. To derail the Summerfield Community Park at this time...
...after surveys created, written and then mailed to the public X2 (I got them in my mailbox), years of public meetings after public meetings, Founder's Day exhibits and again more public input (I visited their display for at least 3 years in a row now), volunteers speaking with clubs & organizations about the park (A member of the park committee came to my club and spoke), master plan development by many experienced people of our town & county and paid licenced architect, grant writers, the state of North Carolina - their time & efforts, Guilford County's time & efforts, on and on and on. I can't think of all that would have gone into this project!
To derail the park for the betterment of our town???? Hogwash!! To do this at this time would be way WRONG! My Gosh...The large moving equipment is on the property as we speak moving the dirt.
To derail the park now would be extremely irresponsible and a waste of a lot of money. This is hard for me to believe that someone would be doing something so crazy as this!! Ok, I may have to take another run after all of this... here we go Skitty, yes again!

Ok, I see nothing in the NWO about the amphitheater or the council ring in the Summerfield park. I know I have seen articles and the P&R map at Founder's Day with these facilities. What is the status on these?
Please put your masks on and use your clear eyes... thanks Jane you are extremely knowledgeable and a valuable to us (the citizens) with all of your Council experiences. Thank you!

You know what I did see in the NWO?
I haven't read it fully yet cause I just got it, but I did notice that Strickland and Crawford stated their reason for voting against the purchase of new playground equipment was because there was not enough public support for a park.
What are they basing this supposition on?
Skiddles, if me, you, Lacka, Bubba, Fat Pappy and Jane all support the park, then we already outnumber their party of 3.

Oh goodness. Sorry Mike!
My mistake! adding you to the list... I am keeping lots of new lists now-a-days! Keeps my shorthand skills fresh you know.
You should have been at the top of that list Mr. Town Council Emeritus (see M.A.A.N forum)
amending that statement:
Skiddles, if Mike,me, you, Lacka, Bubba, Fat Pappy and Jane all support the park, then we already outnumber their party of 3.
Thank you Mike!!
