You have heard about plans to build new apartments in a public park near your home. You want to give your opinion about this.

Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper. In your letter

• Explain how you learnt about these plans
• Say what you think of the park
• Give your opinion on the plans

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing this letter to show my concern on the new apartment that is expected to be built in the public park of our area.

I was reading the monthly Time magazine in which the real estate agencies had given interviews and shared the plans of the buildings. These apartments will take approximately the whole area of the park.

This ground plays a pivotal role in the healthiness of the people of our area. While many children play various games here, numerous elderly people walk in the evening in order to keep themselves fit and active. Since it is in my neighborhood, I also go for a daily morning walk.

In my opinion, if these buildings are permitted to be made on this place, people of our area will suffer greatly as they will be deprived of physical activities. You should highlight this issue in your next publication of the newspaper so that relevant authorities can take action against the owners.

Should you need further information in this regard, please let me know.

Yours faithfully,

Mike Hussey
