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 Mayor, I write
this
letter to complain about your decision of closing our
town
's park and building a car park in its
place
. I have been living in
this
town
for 35 years and I have seen how the
place
where originally lived is being destroyed brick by brick.
Firstly
, our
town
needs
this
park as much as we need air to breathe or a
place
to have a walk or for our children to play. It has been the centre of our everyday lives and its closing will do no good to the minds and bodies of our
town
fellows.
Besides
, you will be remembered as the mayor that obliterated the
last
green corner we had.
Moreover
, I am sure that history will judge
this
decision as a really bad idea.
Furthermore
, I have done a survey amongst the people of the
place
and they are completely unfavourable. Even the owners of shops and small businesses think that eliminating our gardens would have a negative impact on their customers, as they will have no reasons to go to local shops. If I were you, I would think who are the ones that have profited from your decision. On top of that, your project is a really bad idea. A botanical garden is what we need because it would attract tourism and would put our name on the map. Please, take my suggestion seriously and take that old-fashioned project back to the drawer. Yours sincerely
