City bails on Riverside and Frog Island parks

The City of Ypsilanti will no longer run two of it's most popular parks, instead turning over the running of said to a nonprofit organization. The city council said they did this to save money. The City Council voted Tuesday to turn the operation and maintenance of the Riverside and Frog Island parks to the Depot Town Community Development Corporation.

The city said they would close the parks (yeah, uh, I don't think so, we'd all still go and use them and TRY and stop us) and Mayor Paul Schreiber called the parks under utilized.

Speak for yourself Paul, just because the Elvisfest isn't going on and making money doesn't mean people aren't under using them. They just prefer low key soccer games and jogging and walking the track and walking dogs on Frog Island.
