I Support The Westchester Field House in Greenburgh

Vote "YES" for Greenburgh Town Proposition One

I would like to take this opportunity to express my unequivocal support for the today's referendum where Greenburgh residents will have the opportunity to Vote Yes for Town Proposition One.  I have been a resident and business owner in Greenburgh for many years and my patrons and I have endured the eyesore that used to be Frank’s nursery for over a decade.  I am appalled that a minority of naysayers have caused so much confusion as to the benefits that a new indoor sports facility would bring to our community. First, getting rid of a dilapidated building is good for this town, and Game On 365 will provide the funds needed to for environmental remediation of the site.  Second, the town will receive lease payments exceeding $5 million over 15 years at no cost to taxpayers, last but not least, The Westchester Field House will be a place for kids and adults to be active year round, even in the colder months.  To me and many I’ve talked with over the past few months agree, The Westchester Field House is a no brainer and a facility that will bring jobs and revenue is a good thing for our town.  I urge my fellow community members to do the right thing and vote Yes on Town Proposition One this November 6th.  This is a great opportunity for Greenburgh.
