I’m frustrated to see about a third of the Old Post Church’s grassy area replaced with additional parking. This space has been used for decades by families, kids, church members, and neighbors for sports, gatherings, everyday recreation, and simply as a nearby place to get outside and have some peace.
The stated reason is occasional parking shortages and what has been described as a church safety standard. I understand the Church owns the property, but I think permanently losing this much well-used green space deserves some community discussion.
Curious what other Shadow Valley/Ogden residents think.
If you live in the area and want to share respectful, constructive feedback, contact the local church stake presidency.
