Gates at Nautical Park in Amityville should be open
Public Commentary

Dear Editor:

There is a lovely park on the corner of Montauk Highway and Ocean Avenue, complete with two gazebos and many benches. I walk along there occasionally and being elderly, would like to stop and rest, but the gates are locked.

Supposedly they are locked to prevent vandal- ism but should many be deprived because of the behavior of a few? If the park is not to be used, why not just pave it over?

To spend the taxpayers' money to build a park and maintain it and not be able to use it is wasteful and a prime example of stupid bureaucracy.
Louise Bennett, Amityville
