Wildwood - How does acquiring an empty lot and building a business, like an ice skating rink, in the center of Wildwood, meet the criteria of the open space program? Is this really an absolute need for the taxpayers? Can't we get by without this? Is someone pushing this through on behalf of the business improvement district to possibly, but unlikely, prop up their businesses on Pacific Ave.? If the government has to step in to keep these businesses open, it's a government subsidy paid for by taxpayers. If an ice rink is such a good idea, a private enterprise will gladly step in to build one.
