Yes.  How about the Thompson property?  The amount of money, time, and
effort required to convert the Thompson property into a
baseball/softball/soccer complex would be far less than required on the
property south of the UI Arboretum.  This would also maintain the locale's
"green"ery.

 

Thoughts?

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving
safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, chocolate in one hand, a drink in the other, body thoroughly used
up, totally worn out and screaming 'WOO HOO. What a ride!'"

"There should be some sort of compromise here. Put in the lights. Lights are
a safety issue also.They do not have to be on all the time. I doubt the the
observatory would require no lights every night or that the playfield would
need them every night. Work out a schedule that accommodates both."--Roger

I agree Roger. The baseball team can use the lights everyday from 7 AM to
7PM and the Observatory can have them off from 7PM to 7AM.--This would be
fair.

Of course, when you have people waiting years to use the observatory and
millions of dollars in outside funding riding on it, it might take a while
before the lights can come on at night. And also keep in mind that an image
in space can take days to develop and lights turned on can ruin that image.

Here is an idea. How about putting the park that needs lights somewhere else
other than the only place in the city where we cannot have lights on. Just a
thought.
