Dear Mayor Showalter and members of the City Council,
At your February 27 meeting, you will be asked to approve art for Evelyn Park. Below is an excerpt from the staff report:
I believe that LED lights should not be included as part of an art piece that celebrates nature. Light pollution and Dark Sky guidelines are more than just "something of interest" to many of our City residents - please direct staff to work with the artists to eliminate the LED component of the art piece. The idea for Evelyn Park was to have a green and natural environment, a respite from traffic and noise - LED lights have no place in such a park.
Thank you for you consideration,
Ronit Bryant
