Oh…joy…more wasted tax dollars.
They should give some of that wild spaces money to Grace Mkt to bus the vagrants & panhandlers back to where they came from‼️
You have to be a special kind of curmudgeon to bemoan a park as a waste of tax dollars. I bet you’re a real joy to be around…bless your heart.
Is it pet friendly
