If people are of similar mind, then why don’t they hold a fund raiser for the cost instead of burdening tax payers for it? There is nothing wrong with your position, but the tax payers shouldn’t have to pay for things like this.

You’re pretty smart!

Are you a conservative? :)

I agree, which is why I said they should come up with creative ways to raise funds. Find ways for the surrounding communities to participate in it as well. I don’t live in Galveston or League City, but I visit those communities a lot and have a selfish interest in their aesthics. I would be willing to contribute or participate in a raffle or whatever kind of fund-raiser they decided upon.

I’m not a tree-hugger (greenie). I just like trees. They’re pretty. They provide shade. Mockingbirds perch in them and do their amazing singing. They’re brown and green which are my favorite colors. I like the sound when a breeze rustles the leaves. There are so many reasons to like them. You don’t have to be an environmental wacko to appreciate trees.
