I see the park “reform” people have made their “endorsements.” I think these folks started out with legitimate criticisms of the MPRB's processes, but it has evolved into something far nastier and destructive. Apparently, opposing a playing field for the kids at DeLaSalle has become one of their litmus tests. Too bad the kids are an acceptable casualty of their campaign. In case anyone on this list would like to show support for the playing field on Nicollet Island that doesn’t involve a land give-away, doesn’t result in loss of green space, and is a win-win for the city and parks, I would vote for Mary Merrill Anderson and Dan Froehlich for the at-large seats. They are the only two candidates who do not appear to have been scared into submission by these “reformers.” Peter Surmak 13th Ward REMINDERS: 1. Be civil!
