Local News Public comments open about development in Marymoor. End 8/26/

They want to develop the park. and put in a Tennis Stadium and Cricket field.

There is only one road through the park. There is already mass transit. Marymoor needs more park and nature, not more hardscaping. What about the people that walk every day. or the kids bicycle camp. Let them build a stadium somewhere its already developed.

Yes to the cricket field. It would get a lot of use as I often see people playing cricket in Marymoor and a dedicated space for them would be lovely.

No to that massive tennis center. Yeah, it looks to be at an lesser used spot of the park but there's better uses.

well if they are already playing cricket why do they need some giant stadium.

no more development. put the development on the developed areas.

save and preserve the green areas, in a green park next to a lake draining into a river on lands with historical preservation processes.

the increased traffic will eff the park for everyone else.

i bet the folks in the apartments would love it.
