A couple of weeks ago, there was a letter to the editor voicing opposition to the addition of a softball field at Bohn Park.
As a town resident and someone who voted in the survey a few years ago, I would like to show my support for this proposal by the PRC.

A faraway thank you for Lyons
Dear warm-hearted and wonderful people in Colorado,

Yet the green bean has the ability to become rotten here & there without infecting the rest of the plant.

I am opposed to that portion of the recommendation relating to the construction of a new ball field and am requesting the BOT not approve it.
