I agree one thousand percent. How have they claimed to be a part of the community yet they weren’t aware of this issue? Apparently friends with coach Hurley yet they never knew about his affiliation with this HUGE issue? Ignorance is never an excuse.

I would go further and say that this issue is a statewide issue, even more of a national issue considering the location of the park and significance of the landmarks it overlooks. People come from OTHER COUNTRIES to come to this park and see the statue, let alone people from out of the city and out of state.

Furthermore, it sets a precedent that state land should and could be developed for private use, which shouldn’t be the case as it’s state land for public use. Imagine high point state park having mansions all around obstructing the view? Or if the wetlands in Cheesequake state park in central Jersey were developed into condos or an expansion for the PNC center?
