Your friend needs help with a writing assignment that he has to do for school. The teacher has sent him home with the following writing prompt, "Recently, there has been a shortage of parking spaces in the downtown area. Some people feel that more parking would draw more business. So, a land developer has proposed an idea. He has offered to buy a small park from the town, pave it over, and turn it into a parking lot with an attendant to make money. However, some have protested that the loss of the park would not be something that they would welcome. You are a town council member and have to vote on the proposal - yes or no. You also are expected to give a speech to the community explaining your vote. Write the speech that you will deliver."
