    Dear Mr. Adams:

    The mystery deepens. why oh why did you wait so long to knife a project that had passed city muster over and over again over nearly a decade!

    What a shame to waste all the time and money of city staffers, volunteers, realtors and chamber of commerce leaders, Chip Davis and Coconino County staffers, dentists, doctors, small business people, the greatest grass roots force ever assembled in my 26 years.

    Give the impending divorce, a projected 6-1 defeat for Park proponents, such a grass roots force has little chance of ever gathering again given the cobwebs of deceptions. This is bigger than angry neighbors, or Friends of the Posse Grounds, bigger than Barbara’s Park. It is about ethics and credibility. It is about listening to the voices of the people. It is community-building an issue which i believe you ran on.

    It is not late to see the light.

    James DP Bishop, Jr.

    Home Rule allows the city government, Staff with limitations, and Council to spend any money they have on any project they want without regard to voter input.
