"They are the most important thing to keeping our neighborhoods vital." But Kyle Snyder, 38, of Hyde Park, said he cast a "no" vote.

Symphony: no price hike for Third Tier
The Seattle Symphony is giving some season-ticket holders a reprieve on a price increase after subscribers protested the change. Season-ticket holders with Third Tier seats — the upper reaches of Benaroya Hall — saw prices grow for the second straight year when an increase was announced along with the upcoming symphony season late last month. For the main subscription series, the price swelled from $500 to $858 for box seats and $1,199 for center Third Tier seats — though the new price also included four additional concerts, from 18 to 22. Several subscribers complained. Executive director Tom Philion reconsidered and decided to maintain prices for current subscribers on the Third Tier. They will see an increase if their series includes additional concerts this year, but the price per concert will remain the same, he said.
Virginia Snedecker artwork on view at Morris Museum
When Taylor returned, he and Snedecker quickly had two children, and moved first to Brooklyn and then to Ridgefield, where she gave up painting. The demands of raising kids, she said, made working at her art impossible. Snedecker was taught by Kenneth Hayes Miller, who also taught Edward Hopper, and there is something of both male artists in her work -- the genre themes, blond tones and sharply simplified planes of color are reminiscent of many American Scene painters of the day. Where Snedecker differs most from Hopper is in her Renaissance-like devotion to a clear and deep perspectival space in which multiple figures are clearly delineated to establish dynamic, puzzle-fit relationships with one another. .
Adventure playgrounds for Bolton
We have already consulted with residents as to what they want and plans to improve play facilities in the area are already underway. "This programme will benefit all communities in Bolton by creating safe areas in which children can play as well providing modern equipment." The Government wants to create 3,500 public play areas. It wants facilities to include staffed adventure playgrounds, with indoor and outdoor facilities. The council says it is hopeing to receive the larger sum of money, given the work they are already doing to improve play facilities in the area. Last year Town Hall chiefs were awarded £2.9 million to revamp existing play areas. Chiefs also pledged to spend £630,000 on the creation of eight new playgrounds in Brownlow Fold, Ulleswater Street, Thomasson Park, Musgrave Road and Darbishire Park in the Halliwell and Crompton areas, and in Fern Street, Farnworth Central Park, and Harper Green, in Farnworth.
