This park is for the young and old. A place to walk, skate, bike and play. We should keep places in Sarasota for the average incomes people. Not just places to make more money for Sarasota . Let's try to keep some of Sarasota as green space for our children.

Payne Park is a spectacular city oasis for all. Preserve its environment. Buildings can be constructed in more barren areas.

I’m going Monday to petition this disgusting land grab. Corrupt government and now they are involved in corrupting our arts community.

The Van Wezel is a lousy hall, without a doubt but that's not an excuse to steal a major park from the people. Why not rehab the VW so that it has a real lobby and you don't have to transit thru the basement to get to the far side of the hall? I will boycot the Sarasota Orchestra if they proceed with this.

Preserve and protect or we will remember your names during the next election and make sure you have a chance to take up another job better suited to your lack of interest in serving your constituents.

Public parks belong to the public, to be freely used and accessible to all, while preserving the ecological value of the land.

Commissioners:
You are already allowing the building of condos across the street from the park, plus all the new housing throughout downtown area and NOT ONE ROAD has been added. Who is looking out for our city???

There are so many other places the orchestra could use for a hall. Please do not take away some of the only remaining greenspace in Sarasota!
