We, the undersigned, understand that after many years of occasional use for community events made possible by the public spiritedness of the Hatches, their property at the corner of Brown and Short roads in the hamlet of West Danby is now for sale. Given its strategic location, its use historically as public recreational space when rented for the purpose by the Town prior to the current ownership, and the greatly expanded potential uses were it available once again for public use, we the undersigned support the acquisition of the Hatch property at the corner of Brown and Short roads in the hamlet of West Danby for use as a public recreational space owned and administered by the Danby Community Park Association, a registered non-profit.
