Residents of Trefann Court are expressing concerns over the renaming of a parkette after Louis March, a local anti-gun violence advocate. While acknowledging March's positive impact on the community, locals, including Lynn Lawson and Bill Eadie, emphasize their dissatisfaction with the lack of consultation in the decision-making process. Councilor Chris Moise indicates that the recognition is meant to honor March's commitment to ending gun violence. Despite a majority of emails supporting the name change, residents feel their voices were ignored in the discussions around a park that is vital to their community.
Lynn Lawson, a 20-year resident of Trefann Court, states that the parkette has become a neighborhood hub, arguing that renaming it without local input is inappropriate.
What I think people are offended by is that there was no consultation, said Bill Eadie, a long-time resident, highlighting the lack of community involvement in the decision.
