An Open Letter 'Residents Not Against Station' Dear Editor: Regarding an article in the August 13th, 1970 edition of the Speedway Flyer-Journal, pertaining to the location of an additional Speedway Fire Station, I wish to make the following comments. We residents are not protesting the new fire station. 11 thought I made this point clear in my opening statement at the August 10, 1970 Town Board meeting. We are protesting the site selected by the Town Board. Unfortunately, you failed to mention the fact that I was spokesman at the meeting for more than 300 residents in the immediate Meadowood area who signed a petition against the selected Meadowood Park-Wheeler School site. I spoke in time allotted to me by the Town Board and listed our objections as two - fold: (1) The safety of the Wheeler Elementary School children aged five through twelve, walking to and from school will be endangered. The private school dlrve will be used by the fire truck to gain entrance Into the fire station. (2) The loss of a sizeable portion of the Meadowood Park-Wheeler School recreational area. I suggested that the Town Board do a “Cost Study Survey” of all available sites in the Meadowood area, and inform us of their findings. At the conclusion of my discussion, several other residents spoke on this issue, and some expressed opposing views. I hope that this will resolve any misunderstanding that has occurred as a result of the article. Sincerely, Mrs. Ralph O. Horneffer CCS Mr. Robert H. Hoerger Mr. Freeman D. Ketron Mr. Lawrence G. Leonard Mr. Frederick A. Scott Mr. Bruce D. Sherman Mr. James T. O'Neal, Jr.
