Dear Sir,
We have lived on the town for many years and our family who are married with children of their own enjoyed many happy hours at West Park.
They took boat rides and played in the water and when the swans came in 2003 the area was even more popular.
We agree with the Friends of West Park who wish to clear the water and bring back boats etc. As ratepayers we have never been consulted on any decision to change the lakes to a nature reserve.
