City Right to Place Value on Park

To the editor:

The Caponi Art Park ["Eagan Working Out Framework on Caponi Proposal," April 10, 2003] has served as a natural and artistic resource for this community for many years.

Eagan is right to value this land. There isn't much open space left and this central part of the Eagan Core Greenway can be part of the city's heritage for our children and grandchildren.

Do we want to have miles and miles of uninterrupted development? I think we can do better. Open space is one of Eagan's most valuable amenities.

Embrace it!
