The correct answer to this question is letter "C. 52%." 

If the confidence interval is 58±8, then your lower bound is 58−8=50 and the upper bound is 58+8=66. So, you should expect to find a value between 50 and 66 to be a value you need. So the percentage of the town's residents may favor expanding the park and recreation department is 52%.
