   Currently the city of Lancaster has no public skateparks in the downtown area. I'd love to see a plan to build a series of free, concrete, outdoor skateparks in underutilized parks in the city (think Reservoir Park on the east side, Farnum and Brandon Parks on the south side). By building multiple smaller parks throughout the city, it would impact more communities, while also working to prevent overcrowding. On top of giving city kids and adults a place to go, it would also boost tourism, and bring more people to underutilized parks, making them safer throughout the day.

   Congestion on Rts 30/222 are nightmares! We commute weekly to Maple Grove for duplicate bridge. Relocating and keeping doctors in the Reading area is a priority. Going any farther than 772 is not in our thinking. The Oregon Dairy planning is right up our alley for its proximity to Reading. I do realize that there are concerns for the surrounding folks already living in the area.
