Superfly and the City of Denver announced on Thursday, April 27, that they would be moving forward with contract negotiations on a project that would bring a massive music festival to the city-owned Overland Park Golf Course.

Some readers wrote in with enthusiasm about the project; others accused the city of selling out our public parks.

Here are a few of the comments:

Whiners…This is great for the local economy. Look up what Outside Lands does.

What do you think? Will a new music festival on this publicly owned golf course be a benefit for the city or a scourge for the community?
