There were a lot of good things accomplished at this meeting...namely hearing from many residents who have grown tired of the financial drain the unrealized dream of a Town owned Town Center has caused this Town. This is the best offer we are going to get. Accept it or be saddled with this run down property for many years While I applaud Mr. Weir's ethics w/ regard to proper procedure I feel it is in everybodys best interst to act quickly.

To hear Kathy Keys tell it, week after week no council member ever calls another council a thief or liar. The Mayor of Manassas has never refused to sign anything, never threatened to steal another jurisdiction's fire truck or rechannel Bull Run through Nelson Park. Everyone knows we have democratic government of the people, by the people and for the people's entertainment. Why should other jurisdictions have all the fun?"

I've seen worse behavior than this in decades gone by, and yes I'm talking about the P.W.C.B.O.S. too. We need to keep a close eye on ALL of our elected leaders. I'm sure watching the behavior of those on our board. Hilda, actually quacked after being called a "lame duck" five times this past Tuesday night. It was a pretty spirted public hearing.

That's a far sight more than what we have in the park. At least they appear to have one councilman that works for the people. That’s a far sight more than what we have in the park.
