Firstly, congrats to Lewis and Co for the events, far > success than the arts nonsense.

 

Get real. This isn't about Middletown downtown being a destination. Its about having control of downtown to avoid flea markets and cheap acquisition having a negative impact on an area called Main Street, a legend in the minds of K, M, B, and others. That's it, nothing more, nothing less.

 

Just like ObamaCare. Never about health care----about Democratic power and getting voters getting nothing (voucher saying you have healthcare when you pay 5,000 deductible.

 

Same with city hall.  Not about education, not about a "destination", comical right? Its about a few controlling the landscape ecosystem downtown, and bankrupting the city. Fake outrage.

 

Get it? "Their" town is controlling the 'ecosystem'...that's it Pretty simple. And in turn, the city leaders get the nice raises for letting council dip into the cookie jar, and drain rainy day fund. Come on, you are in quicksand, and cannot get out.

 

No vision here, except keeping flea markets, Gold buyers, and 'jot em' down stores from expanding further into their 'street' called Main.

 

You actually thought it would change after 50 years? Let me sell you a bridge over  a 200 ft river in Death Valley, cheap, honestly. 

I heard Mid Fest at MUM was an utter failure this year.
Wonder what their plan will be for next year?
