Locals have to understand we are not as emotional about this park was they are, because they are there...we are not. That being said we can afford to be more objective. There are a lot of questions that have not been answered. Who will take care of the property after it's erected? Who will pay the taxes on the property? Who will own the property? Who will pay the maintenance on the property? Who's responsible for the insurance on the property. What will this cost the taxpayers? How will this venue help find missing children, stop the abuse of children? It's an isolated area in a residential community. Can the homeowner's association request the road be closed off to through traffic if traffic becomes a problem for the school and residents?
A lot of questions, no answers. No one capable of giving answers.....just promises, just stories and haven't we heard enough stories these past 3 years. So the negative comments are more of concerns for the people who live in that area not because we don't think something nice should be done for Caylee. Ask a child which they rather have a nice, new playscape at the school where all children could play and parents would have a place to park or a brickwalk.
Remember children don't need to be constantly reminded that something very tragic happened at this site. And which would be more useful for a child. Putting missing children's names on lights in an isolated area seems like an expensive way to get this information out to the masses when pictures of missing children on milk cartons, costing nothing. has been proven to be far more successful. In plain English, some of their proposals sound like "razzle-dazzle" instead of just plain old common sense.
People of Orange County do your due diligence. Ask those questions and demand your answers before you give them one dollar. It's your money and your right. jmo
