Your local council has decided to close the only park in your town and build a car park in its place. You believe this will have a bad effect on the people who live and work in the town. Write a letter to the mayor. In your letter introduce yourself explain why you think the decision is wrong say what you think the council should do instead

Dear Sir Tompson, I am writing
this
letter in order to draw your attention to the potential negative effects that can occur with the construction of the parking lot. Let me start by mentioning that I am a citizen of
this
town and I have been living here since I was three years old.
Furthermore
, the city
park
has been part of my life and many people in our community and, thinking about having it replaced by a car
park
is devastating. As for why I believe that
this
action can have a detrimental effect is because the
park
is used for those who work and live around the
park
.
Although
there are some private places, many people in our community cannot afford them and the
park
is where they go
instead
.
Finally
, I would like to provide some suggestions that could be considered, which is to construct the parking lot in some of the city buildings. Another possibility is to give more public transportation options to the community, so there will be no need for parking places. I am looking forward to hearing from you on how you are planning to address
this
issue. Yours faithfully, Christina Smith
