LETTER TO THE EDITOR of The PRESS, 4-7-99, By Bill Gladish

Avon voters, your choice should be C-3. On Tuesday, June 1, we Avon voters will make a very important decision for our community.

Your YES vote will give us the Avon Commons shopping center (C-3) and your No vote will give us the Avon Business Park (C-2).

I encourage you to vote Yes because it brings to Avon the following:

$1,180,000 per year for the Avon schools. This equals approximately 4 mills that homeowners will not be asked to pay;
$600,000 per year for the Avon City general Fund. This will pay for many miles of road improvements that homeowners will not be asked to pay for with additional property taxes;
additional traffic lanes and computer-linked traffic signals in the area of I 90, SR 83, and SR 254. Traffic flow will be better than under present conditions, and the developer will pay $1.8 million for these improvements;
greater green space with walkways, an amphitheater, gazebo and space for community events.

Let's vote for the Highest Quality -- which means a YES vote on the Avon Commons (C-3) on June 1, 1999.
