[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems to me the people who are opposed to the pool are in a serious case of group think. It must be some of the older residents who don't really use the park or socialize with the younger families. ("everyone I know is opposed to the pool")

Really, there is overwhelming support for this. Please don't try to fight it, it will just divide the neighborhood. Why not push for hours of operation that maximize usage but minimize perceived wear and tear? How about advocating for gathering areas so the neighborhood can come together there.

Another thing, we should be pushing for a 12 months design, so when the pool isn't being used, the space can still be programmed.

The neighborhood already gathers at the park.  If you lived there, you would know it.[/quote]

I do know it as I gather and the playground with my kids and I see the dog walkers gathering on the field. The pool could be another focal point if it is designed properly. That was my point.[/quote]
