Citizens Speak Out Against Events Centre
The seeds of discontent are being sown over the proposed events centre. About a hundred disgruntled citizens turned out last night at the Mary J-L Black library to tell the city that the proposed arena is too expensive. Some like Maryann Baarts-Matson don't like the proposed south side down town location. Kim Coreau called for a plebiscite on the issue while John Salamon spoke against the 106 million dollar cost. Also making an appearance was Mayor Keith Hobbs and Councillor Joe Virdiramo.
