On the proposed Moyie Springs playground /
recreation site |

To the Editor:
I have been told I should look at the “hope and
change” for “our” children that a
playground/basketball/tennis court in Moyie
Springs will bring. So, after the March council
meeting, I sat down and pondered it.
Perhaps the area around the electric substation
(already fenced, no worries) would be paved to
provide an area to park while waiting to use the
courts.
Be useful for the children to skateboard, ride
bikes, ATV's and gather. Sidewalks added to
North Division and side roads paved so the
children don’t walk in the street.
Crosswalks with flashing lights to slow/stop
traffic added so the children are safe. Perhaps
a traffic signal at the intersection to mitigate
the added traffic from the new housing
development.
Of course, the playground/basketball/tennis
court will need “infrastructure” like trash
collection, bathrooms, lighting, water, wi-fi,
cell service etc. It will require seasonal and
daily maintenance so new city employees will
have to be hired.
Wait, all that “infrastructure” is already in
place at City Hall! Oh drat...the children would
have to walk several blocks to get there.
Dang...where is that empty SPOT bus when you
need it?
