>Florence Schedler property: Readers Urge Caution
I hope the Village can find some new donors for Schedler. I would guess that anyone who donated to the Maple Field project will in no way financially support a Schedler project after watching in disgust as the Village has let a million dollar gift disintegrate in such a short period of time.
I think that we need to pause and reflect before we develop another field. We need to identify our “needs” and “wants”.
We also need to look at all the resident push back on this type of development. Don’t start another fight for no reason. I doubt that people who contributed in the past will be looking to contribute again. Maybe the land should be left as open space with walking paths.
I don’t think that they will be able to raise any money for more fields. The residents are tapped out and tired of the wasteful spending on the last projects. There is no one competent enough to do a good job. Look at maple, Stevens and the stadium. Some money was raised and the village taxpayers are on the hook for most of the expenses.
