Letter to Editor at the Palm Beach Post re Spring Training

Congrats to the county commissioners for voting against jobs, prosperity and the chance to assist an underserved portion of Palm Beach County. The commissioners voted against the proposed spring training and minor-league stadium at 45th and Military Trail. That parcel has been vacant for decades and is now overgrown and filled with broken glass and trash. Let’s keep it that way. The fact that the Nationals and Astros were even interested astounds me. My advice to the two teams would be to look elsewhere. There must be a location that would welcome jobs and associated local development.
