Obviously there is a strong sports lobby in Aurora, particularly in the Town administration. It is bad enough when private enterprise provides these facilities in artificial environments which consume energy from fossil fuels especially as we experience the extremes of climate change. Council should be promoting more neighborhood outdoor ice rinks, open playing fields for pick-up recreation, and cross country ski trails.
