Residents of White City are voicing their opposition to a proposed civic center in Big Bear Park. City officials envision the building as a hub for consolidated services, but residents fear it will negatively impact the park's recreational value. Concerns include increased traffic, visual blight, and the loss of open space.
Residents of White City are pushing back against the idea of building a civic center in Big Bear Park .
Now, residents like Rennie are worried about a potential plan to build a civic center in the northwestern end of the park. She said in an email the building would be a "minimalist presence in the park" and "very little brick and mortar." However, Flint said their use of the water district building is "subject to an agreement that may not always be available."
We are asked the bidders for feasibility to look at purchasing property. White City is 100% built out. There is no space. Some folks have stated buying some homes. That will come at a high price. The only moneys we get is our sale tax, road taxes, and grants which pay for our public works services and capital projects. Sego Lilly has been totally paid for with these funds.
