Council ignoring people's wishes on pathway

Letter to the Editor

This letter is to voice our comments, once again, on the Electric City pathway project.

We did read the newspaper article regarding the most recent meeting and were pleased that the citizens are standing up for their rights. The people have a right to be angry because they are not being heard. The meeting we attended was a joke – they only wanted discussion about the “vision” of parks and not the pathway.

The council members have their minds made up – and yes, they think it is carved in stone! They are obviously not considering what the people want.

We have expressed our reasons for objecting to the pathway to the council members and they have ignored the comments and continued with their agenda to do it anyway. Some of our reasons being – protecting the wildlife, fire danger, litter, plus the blatant disregard of what the property owners want.

I hope Electric City residents will continue to speak up.

Myrna and Orie Francis
