Dear Mrs.Compound, 29th June 2016 I am writing to you as I'm concerned about the overgrowth on the green space in my local park- Evergreen. The wildflowers are spreading like a disease over the playground space. This is discouraging the local children from using Evergreen park. Over the last two months, I’ve noticed that the community appears to be withdrawn from what is rightfully theirs – a well maintained green space. I beg of you to bring back what we deserve, what we the tax payers pay for – a place for all to go to, to share, to enjoy. I hope … Yours Sincerely, Mr.Greenfield
