Maybe you should take a step back and reconsider some of the things you have been saying in an effort to so ardently defend against people holding open discussion about what is going on right, and what can be improved.
For example, it IS hard to understand waiting for 'residents' to come. Maybe in theory it's a toss up, but the reality is that press releases are going out, events are being thrown, people ARE coming back to town. This is regardless of whatever landscape you are attempting to infer they don't want to drive through to get here. I think that makes it a little bit easier to take a position on the issue. It's clear from the turnout at the BW this weekend, that people are ready to come back. But for what? a pocketful of promises and a lien against a new day? It's funny how when 'positive' things are brought up alongside the 'negative', it's perceived that the entire message is negative. Be an adult, be willing to listen instead of reaching for a dull sabre right away. I guess all in all, its not too suprising given that the main theme running through the election was fear. Some of the papers went so far as to actually say that they were 'afraid' that a change in leadership would stop progress. None seemed to pay attention to the fact that the candidates were, for the most part, saying they just wanted a denser granularity of oversight, not to try to do away with the bad deals the city was stuck with. Alas, just as (more and more it seems) with the posts up here, people take what they want and diregard the rest. For some reason, I have always held that this group was an oasis in the ostrich-laden sand that makes up the AP politiscape. Hmm, on second thought, maybe I';m the one who needs to take a step back and reconsider my thoughts. tony --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, charlie leonard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > yes, by this point in time you would think more things > would have been done. but as ive said for the past 4 > years, nothing will be done to the boardwalk or its > buildings untill residential units are up and running. > is it that hard to understand? once there are people > living, and filling those abandoned streets. they > will work on the boardwalk. yes it could have been > done the other way around, but doing residentail first > will give the area a more lived in enviorment. > something more people would want to dirve through, to > get to that great boardwalk. years ago, they even > said residential was being done first. but yet, people > still wonder why things arnt being done. once those 2 > fast track projects (ok, not so fast) are done on > ocean ave. things will pick up very fast in mind mind, > and im stcking ot that > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
