[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pool advocates no longer have a leg to stand on. If the pool is going to charge fees, there is no difference between a public pool and the many pools in the area that one can join. It is also a way to keep interlopers out. The park is free now. Restricting access while damaging the environment is a non-starter.[/quote]

No fee, check.
No damage to environment, check.
Improve the environmental impact of the park for those of us who live on Springland Lane, check.

Please stop lady. You really don't know what you are talking about and do not speak for all of us who live within a stone's throw of the park.[/quote]

How will covering grass with concrete and other impermeable surfaces and cutting down mature oaks whose root structure will be adversely affected by the pool result in "no damage" to the environment?  Moreover, replacing permeable landscape with impermeable surface will only make worse drainage issues for those who live downhill from Hearst Park.
