Leave Maple Avenue park open

I appreciate Stuart Welch’s letter illustrating just how exorbitant is the budget proposal for the Maple Avenue “park.”

We are left with precious little green space after the Hedlin ballfield debacle. Why junk-up and pave-up most of what is left? The surveys many of us completed supposedly soliciting input from La Conner residents must have been round filed, as I believe many respondents wanted to leave it as a predominantly open green space.

It’s just another in a long line of the self-proclaimed “powers that be” ignoring the wishes of La Conner residents who want to preserve whatever may be left of our town’s character.

Sincerely,

Evie Johnson

La Conner
