Quick Hits - Monday June 18th

Buskers or Bust (Item 4, not posted as yet) - decision time tonight. It's not looking good for the fan-favourite festival. I find it a strange coincidence that the former promoter for Buskers also happens to be the promoter of Festival Epicure, another Festival the City did nothing to help. Several emails that I've received claim that there is no coincidence. The City was looking to rid itself of the promoter and have accomplished their goal.

Spin City (Windsor edition) - Council's ad hoc Communication Committee meets today at 10:00 am, Walkerville meeting room City Hall, to once again attempt to create a $250,000.00 dollar Communications department at City Hall. Apparently there is a new report from administration to be considered. I guess the fact the meeting wasn't publicized and the report not published could be used as justification for the new PR department.

Once the new PR department is in place, I'm sure they'll be put to good use convincing us all of how much we need a new City Hall to save money.

Stop by tomorrow for "What could $250,000 CDN do for Windsor", a follow-up to "What could $80,000 USD do for Windsor".
