Our City, Our Decisions

8/11/2017

So, recently talk of redevelopment of the Fairgrounds and Mid-South Coliseum started up....again. The first of three meetings was held on August 10th to discuss the plans for the deserted area. I've heard mixed reviews on the nature of the meeting. To some there wasn't much discussion on what should happen with the area. Instead it was more so a small presentation on what the City desired for the once lively area to be. However, there were notecards handed out to the residents for ideas. Others felt that that this time it was more inclusion and an opportunity to compile all the ideas to come up with the perfect solution.

I think that even if the wheels are already in motion for a youth sports complex we should still attend these meetings to stay informed and let our opinions be heard. I definitely don't want the space to be something useless that doesn't appeal or benefit the masses so, I'll be attending the next meeting regardless of what it may be about.

It is important to make sure that there are places and activities for all ages throughout the city! Memphis has a gap it needs to fill when it comes to opportunity and activities for all. If we don't pay attention or require much the city will continue to be stuck in the past hanging on to it's potential.

 I hope you all continue to be alert, be informed, and know what's going on. The decisions made in this city affect you. If someone gives you the option to even just have an option, take it!
