An important letter to LaGrange Voters

primeanytime — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 19:58:48 +0000

On November 4, we will be voting for a new President of the United States of America….Without question, much is at stake in our country and the world, as we choose the leader who will execute a plan that will take us into economic recovery and hopefully reconnect of our government’s legislative and executive representatives with us, the hard working citizens.

Hopefully, our elected officials have heard the message loud and clear that we want them to wake up and focus on our family’s needs and goals as we work every day to financially support the government’s initiatives. WE want our initiatives to be their initiatives and not the other way around.

There seems to be a new or modified news story repeated daily or hourly in all the various media channels to the point that it makes it difficult for us to think or talk about anything else.

Regardless of our opinions on the list of issues that face us today, we must not allow these news stories to overshadow the fact that we must also keep a close eye on the issues and decisions that come before us in our own LaGrange back yards.

This November 4^th, one such very important LaGrange “back yard” decision will be before us.

It is a very unique question that LaGrange residents will be asked to vote on. It is unique because you will be asked to vote “YES” or “NO” on a Gordon Park referendum that will actually not cost us, the taxpayers and property owners, a dime……hmmmm, imagine that! For no money out of our pockets, we can and will reap substantial benefits.

We will be asked to make a decision to allow the Park District of LaGrange to sell a portion of Gordon Park, the 2^nd largest but little used park in LaGrange, in return for a much greater benefit to our families.

FAQ: Is the Park District of La Grange selling all of Gordon Park? (from www.gordonpark.org)

Absolutely not. PDLG is trying to sell 2.82 acres of land at Gordon Park. After the sale, Gordon Park would be 14.71 acres – still the second largest park in La Grange. To put it another way, Gordon Park would be more than 4 times the size of Waiola Park.

Again, the biggest risk we face is that this important local decision will be overshadowed by the continual stream of noise created due to presidential election, the economic bailout, “Trooper-gate”, the DOW, Kaylee Anthony, Britney Spears and the list goes on …….I just don’t believe that there is much more room left in our daily attention spans for anything more, even though it will affect our community.

But this decision is important to all of us on several levels and we must take that little bit of extra effort to make the best informed decision on behalf of our community and families.

Let’s allow our Park District to take action that will result in a much more accessible, efficient, “state of the art park” while upgrading the corner of LaGrange Road and Ogden Avenue.

If this does not go forward, we will regret that we have allowed an opportunity slip by. The lack of positive action will be an inaction that we will regret for years to come.

Please vote on November 4th and don’t forgot to cast your vote for the Gordon Park referendum.
