You read the article below in Tuesday’s edition of the Westvale Herald. You have decided to write a letter to the editor to express your opposition to the plan and to urge the council to reconsider its decision.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing about the recent article in your newspaper regarding the decision to sell the land to a property developer where now Longheath Park is placed. I strongly disagree with this decision and I feel that I have to take action in this matter. To start with, if the park will be sold there will be no open spaces left. As a result, children will not be able to play freely, and people will have nowhere to walk with their dogs, ride their bicycles and so forth.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing about the recent article in your newspaper regarding the decision to sell the land to a property developer where now Longheath Park is placed. I strongly disagree with this decision and I feel that I have to take action in this matter.

To start with, if the park will be sold there will be no open spaces left. As a result, children will not be able to play freely, and people will have nowhere to walk with their dogs, ride their bicycles and so forth.

What is more, there will be very few green areas in the town. Consequently, this is very unhealthy, as people need fresh air and natural surroundings for good health.

Finally, the town will be crowded and built up. This will mean more traffic and pollution. Then the city will no longer be a nice place to work and live.

All in all, I must state that I am in total disagreement with the council’s decision. I hope that the local council will reconsider its verdict and plans about Longheath Park.

Yours faithfully, XYZ
