I think the taxpayers of Washington should be allowed the opportunity of vote on whether we want the financial burden of the amphitheater. It may pay for itself in the long run but right now the facts and figures don't support that conclusion. While Mr. Hengst "s donation was very generous, perhaps more study is needed to see what would benefit Washington and its citizens more.

We can't afford the taxes and don't properly maintain the infrastructure we currently have.

Please! As alderman you are to represent what the people want. Not make decisions for them that do not include the opinion of the people you represent! Put this amphitheater idea on a ballot. Let the people decide! Thank you

I am very concerned about the noise level and cost to taxpayers among other things as a resident of Devonshire.

This thing sounds like an unneeded pet project.

I’m not in favor of any project that is going to further raise our taxes, and I don’t see how this wouldn’t do that.

Please do not go forth with this amphitheater project… We like 5 points and feel we do not need this in our city.

We don't need an amphitheater. If 5 points can't makea profit. How will an amphitheater?

I am opposed. This is not a needed expenditure and the benefits of an outdoor venue in our area are dubious at best. Not one dime of taxpayer funds should ever be contributed.

There are to many unanswered questions about this project. A 12 million dollar donation could should not be tied to a project that could cost the taxpayers thousands of dollars.
