We agree completely with the excellent letter of April 9 urging the Charlottesville School Board to vote against the transfer of school land to the Virginia Department of Transportation for the Meadowbrook Parkway (“Don’t use school’s land for road,” The Daily Progress).
We have tried for years to persuade the city councilors to reject the increasingly expensive plan to carve a road through McIntire Park that will not benefit the city.
We believe that it will only benefit Albemarle County drivers who want to cut through the middle of our town to get to the other side.
We thank The Daily Progress for printing the letter, hoping that finally the city will back off from this misbegotten parkway through our beautiful park.
The money can be used in many better ways.
