[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] DPR (or is it DGS? :lol: ) will spend a lot of money to wedge into the slope a glorified kiddie pool that is half the size of a tennis court -- and in the shade. Or wait, it won't be shaded anymore, because they'll cut down all of the trees on the periphery of the park.[/quote] So much hyperbole packed into two sentences, bravo. 1) The cost is mostly dedicated to stormwater and other improvements to the park. 2) The pool isn't being wedged. There are already little-used tennis courts there. Are the courts wedged in? 3) The proposed pool is the same size as many other DPR pools in the city. If you want an 8 lane 50 meter pool with a diving well, join one of the Montgomery County Community Pools. 4) No one is cutting down "all" of the trees on the periphery of the park. The scrub trees on the hill around the proposed pool will likely get cleaned up, for the first time in two generations.[/quote]
