Well said Mr. Franks! A new town garage is needed, but not at that price tag. The town leadershipRead More needs to offer a far better option to the voters than this. I am also voting NO...

You should know better than anyone Steve, but I'll be happy to list the sites for Wyatt. I know thatRead More you will dispute everything I am about to say Steve, but I don't believe as you apparently do that different opinions mean that one or the other has to be "garbage". 51 River Road is the obvious choice. I know there are concerns about the elimination of the softball field there, but it could easily be relocated to allow for using this location. The site is clear, level, centrally located, and already has all the needed utilities. It was also listed as the #1 potential location by Weston and Sampson in their 2009 study done for the town. 55 Lawton Road is also already owned by the town. I haven't seen any published numbers for site work at this location, but the land is flat and wouldn't need all the build up, fill dirt, and retaining walls that will be required on Commerce. Like River Road there are no wetland issues at this property, and the useable acreage at 55 Lawton far exceeds that of any of the other properties that were looked at. This would certainly insure more than enough room for future growth if needed. I know there has been much talk about using this site for additional athletic fields, but at an estimated cost of $1.1 million dollars how likely is it that this will ever happen? And even if the money did someday become available, there is plenty of land there to do both if the layout is done well. There is also another parcel on Lawton Road Road that is I believe state owned, but I haven't heard any discussion regarding it. I certainly believe this property merits consideration as well.

Hey Larry, Wyatt asked you for the other 3 sites. Lets hear your answer and why exactly you feelRead More they will work. The EDA has been saying garbage like that for over a year. The Board of Selectman asked them three times to share their data. Of course they delivered nothing yet continue to say there is a better way. They have had plenty of times to show a better plan.

Hear, hear, Sarah. The real reason people are opposing this plan is a "not in my backyard"Read More attitude--it has nothing to do with cost. If so many people in town were so concerned about wasteful expenditures, we would have heard them complain about $3.6 million for a track and field! When the "dumb" location argument failed to make headway, the opponents to the "dumb" garage plan, acting purely out of self-interest and not for the common good, switched to a financial argument. You can't fool me: I voted yes.

@Steve. Kudos! Nice to see some common sense and decency. The actions of "Citizens for aRead More Better Canton" have been shameful to say the least - attacking critics, distributing misleading information and attacking the good people who volunteer their time to make Canton a better place to live.

It makes me chuckle when someone spends weeks mudslinging, finger pointing, and pot shotting untilRead More the targets of their harassments speak up and then they decide the game is over, well sorry, I have only just begun. I was sickened by the behavior of certain people at the town meeting scheduled to discuss this garage project. Most of them where given a script to read using lies and incorrect numbers to attack members of town boards and commission. They attacked the intelligence, ethics, and integrity of members of the Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, Permanent Municipal Building Committee and project consultants. You have even managed to involve our neighbors from Barkhamsted in your May 15 Patch submission, referring to them as “Hairshirt wearing radicals who don’t wash their cars”, again full of incorrect numbers and misinformation. I am attending a Board of Ethics Meeting tonight to defend myself from mud slung on me by those finger pointers trying to distract from the facts at hand. These very same people told this town that they wanted a football field and they wanted a pool. They said that the folks in Canton deserved these things. They understood that these things came with a price tag and they were ready to pay it. Funny how the song has changed now that we have changed our focus to a much less glamorous project. Perhaps if we were proposing a hockey rink or an equestrian team $5.4 million wouldn’t be so much.
