It went on Council's agenda as a memorandum from Councillor Humphryes. It's a strategy from the past. When a debate is over and a decision made, not to their liking,organise an invasion of the body snatchers to pull the irons from the fire.
Failing that, get a letter written and finagled on to an agenda, that will re-open the discussion for the purpose of repeating the debate and getting a different decision more to their liking.
The stunt effectively sabotages all orderly business process.
Having said that, I am more then happy to have the letter in the hand of Susan Morton Leonard to illuminate what our town has been dealing with and accommodating for the past several years.
Nothing does it better than seeing it in writing.
Their determined intent this year is to fence the town park off from regular resident users for four days instead of three at no expense to themselves.
Last year, proceeds realised from three days of various activities were $140,000. No doubt. this year, closer to $200,000 is expected with an extra day of our park fenced off , all revenue from admission charges, beer garden, food purveyors , kiosks selling products and artists selling wares, pouring into their pockets.
It really is quite extraordinary .
