PLEASANT VIEW -- Some council members and Mayor Doug Clifford would like to see one acre of land in Wadman Nature Park go to the North View Fire District.

The acre of property and the rest of Wadman Nature Park was donated to the city by the Wadman family. Councilman Todd Walker, whose term ends Jan. 1, voiced strong opposition to the plan.
