Dear Editor: I am writing to comment on an article you wrote concerning the new handicapped accessible walkway near the gazebo.
My wife and I were off to an event at the gazebo a few months ago. I use a motorized wheelchair. When we got there, I realized that I could not navigate the grassy area to get close enough to the gazebo to see or hear what was going on. I decided to get involved and contact key personnel in the town. I spoke to deputy town manager Russ Jones and Mayor Michael Vieira. Both officials set up a meeting with representatives from the town Engineering and Public Works departments. I was invited to be at that meeting.
Within a few months, plans were made and plans were executed. The communication was excellent and the cement was poured just in time for the upcoming summer concerts.
Kudos to Michael Vieira and Russ Jones for making it easier for many people who use assistive devices. Bruce Freeman Pointe Gate Drive
