So for the 4th time In Lakewood's history, a small group of people desperate to grab property and or funds are telling us if we just follow them we will get a Rec Center. No this time we mean it.
Here is the problem, every couple years family change, move, or stop caring, and they come back again and again until they get their way. And the residents of Lakewood get screwed one more time.
The cartoon above was in the Lakewood Observer, foretelling the closing of Lakewood Hospital by nearly a year. How is that possible, it's easy if you know the history of Lakewood, the schools, the developments, the non-profits, and the politics.
Fight over closing schools, or organize and get great management.
Why not both?
