Re: [Mpls] Wading pools

[Annie Young]

Yes - on the open list there has been little talk but believe me people 
have found out how to write off line or from other sources.  I (and we) are 
getting lots of responses.  Unfortunately, only one person out of dozens 
has offered an alternative solution.  I am still looking for "which Peter I 
am to take the money from in order to pay Paul". Again, I am very open to 
suggestions.

Although it's not as high-profile as the war, there's been surprisingly
little debate about the Park Board possibly closing wading pools near the
lake.
Do members think this is an appropriate cut, given the context of a $3.5
Park Board shortfall? How important are wading pools? And do they deserve to
be the first cut restored if the Park Board can find other cuts.
My understanding is that most if not all wading pools in Southwest
Minneapolis will be shut down.
And I echo Annie's question: if you restore the 50K saved, where else do you
find the savings?
