Default RE: Shutting fields down / experiences?

I think we have all seen flying feilds closed down by complaints before. But I have seen cities build flying fields also. Nice ones, with paved runways, and even an F84 on a pedistal. We all know that a complaint isn't worth a darn without a solution to offer. IF the town wants to shut you down, my advice is to go to a council meeting and state that solution is not acceptable, that they need to relocate you to your own field. We pay taxes for ball parks and running trails and lakes and ponds and every other type of park and rec center. Where is ours ? We have a right to have a park also. Demand one. State that you will gladly relocate to any field the town wishes to provide. Bring your flying buddies. Fill the room , if you can. And keep going to every meeting until you get your field.
We aren't second class citizens. I'm tired of being treated like one. We have just as much right to expect a field as anyone.
