This is a "once in a lifetome opportunity" to by a piece of property. However, the property was sold just 4 years ago and 3 times inthe last 15 years. so whjo's lifetime are we talking about, a pre=schoolers?
Council member Fraley-Mollinas said last week "what if we didn't have to use general fund dollars to buy this? What if there were other ways to pay for it?" Good questions, maybe you should ask those BEFORE you make an offer on it.

Totally irresponsible to purchase this “over-valued” piece of property when there is no money and no plan! We already have a "gravel" Park in front of Mill Town purchased by the City for good money!. Such a short-sighted and foolish idea when we need to encourage business to come to town. In this poor economic time it would be wise to be pro-active to attract more businesses to fill the vacancies in town, from the Antique Mall, old Big lots, to many spaced Downtown and on Hyw 99. This will help with taxes and the general budget for Edmonds. I am hoping our City Cincil will start thinking about the future of our city.

Thank you for providing such a valuable service for our community. I was concerned that people might try to vote more than once; I was pleased to find that they cannot.
