This week, we saw that citizens can convince their elected representatives to change their minds. The residents of Abbott Boulevard in Cobourg made a presentation to the Committee of the Whole on May 29 opposing having a sidewalk built on their street.

The Cobourg Taxpayers Association (CTA) sent a letter to Council requesting that Council receive this proposal for information purposes only. We have not taken an official position on the Venture 13 proposal. Our rationale for the request is this: Our perception is that although some town projects are handled well (police, fire, town roads, grass cutting, and other similar projects), we have no confidence with respect to many of the others.
