Contrary to the posting by Mike Hendrickson, the sale of land on Park Point is not "a done deal". Several of us are working with the City to try and come up with an alternative. Rather than spreading false information, it would be helpful if birders who are concerned about the land sale either contacted the mayor and/or council members (email addresses on the City's web site) or send a letter to the Duluth News Tribune. There have been many letters against another asset sale the City is proposing (an historical Tiffany stained glass window) but only one about the Park Point land sale. Those of us who went and testified at the City Council and met with the mayor and staff need some expression by the birding community that they also think that the sale and development of this land is tragically wrong.
