The reduction in funding for these kinds of events just seems penny-wise pound-foolish.
In Kelowna they close several blocks of their main street downtown during the summer so that restaurants can expand their outdoor patios.
It's really nice and I think more cities should do it.
Right? It's awesome having Bernard turn into a giant mixed use path with bonus patios. This is in Kelowna of all places, one of the most car happy places with dismal transit, and despite that most people still get behind this.
