The town council just confirmed the updated plans will include the outdoor pool at the Angle Fly property. I keep looking at the blueprints and smiling because I know how much this will mean for all our families. Thank you for pushing for this vision with me and we will …
We respectfully request the inclusion of an outdoor pool in the planned community center, as a number of families in Somers consider this to be the primary goal in developing the Angle Fly property. For many, an outdoor pool is the focal point in such a project.
We also expect a balanced proposal that meets the needs of many constituencies, and do not want a proposal for an outdoor pool to be a separate line item on the ballot. A singular and comprehensive plan presents the community with the best chance for a center that satisfies the greatest number of our residents. This is an opportunity to galvanize the community and stop the divisive politics that sometimes exist in Somers. A true community center would bring everybody together in one place.
We want to see a revised preliminary plan that includes an outdoor pool on the site. This petition is only meant to communicate the needs and interests of the undersigned, in the hopes that we will ultimately build a center that serves as a source of pride for Somers and its leadership.
Seeing the count climb toward five hundred signatures reminds me why I started this for my own kids who have wanted a local place to swim for years. If we hit this goal today we will have the leverage needed to finally get the attention of the planning committee. Please send this link to a neighbor who wants to see the pool included in the final designs.

Seeing one hundred people sign this list reminds me why I started fighting for this pool. I look at the Angle Fly property and I know we can do better for the families here.

I have spent my mornings reviewing the feedback you provided and it is clear that our vision for a proper outdoor space resonates with families across this town. I am currently working to secure a direct conversation with the planning committee to ensure they understand why this addition is nonnegotiable for our neighborhood.

The angle fly property is perfect for this. Stop wasting time and just build the thing already.
