Hello!

Good day! Glad to grade your paper today!

DMK

check double spacing | Format Oops, please be sure to turn off the Space Before/After Paragraph option in the Paragraph section of your MS Word toolbar. Be sure Word is not adding a space before and/or after a paragraph or other parts where you select Enter to start a new line by making sure the Line Spacing section shows "Add Space Before Paragraph" and "Add Space After Paragraph" at

the bottom. If either says "Remove" at the beginning instead of "Add," please click those that say "Remove."

If either one of these two is on, you'll likely notice an extra space (beyond double spacing) between the lines of your heading text, before and/or after the title, between paragraphs, and between each works-cited entry.

Awk. | Language Awkward: The expression or construction is cumbersome or difficult to read. Consider rewriting.

Comment 2 | Thesis

You might use this as a guideline in crafting your thesis: Valley City should (add solution suggestion), which (add how it can be funded) and (add justification), although (add counterargument focus). Here is a more specific example: Valley City should (use its largest abandoned warehouse for a new recreational center to hold before and after-school programs), which (can be conveniently funded by the tax stream that was being used to construct Main Street until this point), and will (provide the final element—housing—in order for local schools to also implement a before-school program(, and although (some community members do not believe before- and after-school programs are necessary(, they should (review the high number of students apprehended by law enforcement during the hours before and after-school programs would operate).
