[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You think the Mayor is going to care? More people want the pool. She would rather cater to them than the NIMBYs. [/quote] You can disparage and dismiss 150 avid park using families as "NMBYs" all you want, but they're energized, motivated and vote. If Hearst had acres and acres of unused green space it might be different, but a pool necessarily involves sacrificing existing park uses and tree canopy. Park users don't see value in that tradeoff. Bowser clearly telegraphed that the Hearst site selection is all of Cheh, as the DPR professional staff themselves aren't sold on Hearst.[/quote]
