Opposition to Pyramid Centre Grows
Debra van Brenk reports in today's London Free Press:
'A citizens' group planning to speak to town council tonight says it has amassed 1,000 names -- in this town of about 6,000 -- opposed to the new arena and indoor pool.
And if council doesn't heed its concerns and slow down, the group may seek a court injunction, said group leader Andrew Atlin.
Van Brenk continues by quoting Andrew Atlin:
"Clearly the tax burden is going to be onerous,"
"(It) could bring us considerably to our knees" and leave the community unable to afford road, bridge and waterline repairs.
"Nobody's saying the dream isn't a good dream," he said.
"The reality is where do we go from here in allowing the community to do those other things?"
