Vasquez: The town should light the riverside path at night. People avoid it after dark, and a path nobody uses is a path the town has paid for twice.

Lindqvist: The moths and bats that feed along the river would move elsewhere if we lit it, and the summer bat walks are the best-attended thing this town does. The path is not going unused after dark. It is being used by people who come for the dark.

Vasquez and Lindqvist disagree over whether

Athe town has already paid, once, to build the riverside path, and that money is gone whatever the town now decides to do about lighting the path

Bpeople are currently avoiding the riverside path after dark, so that for those hours it goes largely unused

Cthe moths and bats that feed along the river can be seen there only after dark, and are not to be found along it by day

Dthe summer visitors drawn by a well-attended event are worth some cost to the town that hosts it

Elighting the riverside path would drive the moths and bats that feed along it to somewhere darker along the river, and the summer bat walks would go wherever they went
