What Do You Think?

Perhaps you've heard of the City of Fairfield's proposal to sell part of 46.5 acre Allan Witt Park to developers to build 700 residential and retail units in 3 and 4 storey buildings, townhomes and single-family attached housing. The City says the proceeds from the park sale will be used to construct a Sports Complex and baseball fields a mile or two away next to the sewage treatment facility, relocate tennis and basketball courts to other community parks (Laurel Creek) several miles away, build a Youth Center two miles away on North Texas Street, and improve remaining facilities at Allan Witt Park. To find out more visit http://www.allanwittpark.org

We would like to know your thoughts about this proposal. Do you think it will improve the park experience and attract visitors to Fairfield? Will this development trigger revitalization along the West Texas Street corridor and improve the West Texas Gateway to our city? Will the new facilities sustain themselves or become a financial burden on the City? Is this proposal good for Fairfield? Let us know what you think!
