The ones who are "out of whack" are the critics and cranks on this blog who continue to carp about something that has been scrutinized and subsequently remedied. <br /><br />It is almost three years since a couple of rookie councillors were manipulated into bringing something to a head. Consequently, a new agreement was negotiated. A town gem which was almost lost has only got better.<br /><br />If you want to perpetuate the baseless 'us versus them' narrative, that's your loss and, frankly, evidence of gullibility. To me, the Cultural Centre is another community centre, much like the library; being enjoyed by Aurorans of all ages (with activities and events catering for kids to seniors).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506868496663273256.post-1718526069230268772014-12-29T09:30:04.199-05:002014-12-29T09:30:04.199-05:0016:59

Remember when the town was trying to set up meetings with the board & it was always impossible to arrange because none of the board people were available ?<br /><br /> I have an off-topic question for you since you are around the town centre a lot. I saw that a new restaurant was going to replace the Edward Street Market. Must have blinked because now it is a place for help with addiction services.<br /> What happened with the restaurant so fast?

But then again why should they have to think about some seasonal revenue or providing services to the town during this time?
