What Common Ground is about

Dear Editor:

What Common Ground is asking of the Ormond Beach City Commission at the upcoming special meeting on July 13 at 7 p.m. in the commission chambers is to grant a reasonable period of time before demolition of Union Church at 56 N.Beach Street to explore together — all of us, (citizens, business owners, city staff, commissioners, builders, contractors,, environmentalists, parks and recreation, historians, architects, waste management) — all options for the property at 56 N. Beach Street and to give equal time during this period to resolving the parking issue on the north side of Granada. Let's decide together how we can have it all.

During the length of time it would take to make just 56 parking spaces, Common Ground will have found or breathed life into many more possibilities for parking, and the property; thereby finding a win/win for all, and that is what Common Ground is about.
