I love the unique style of Candia - why would anyone make an issue of this.... Our Guys at the recycling center are long time employees of the town, always helpful and actually care. The Art in itself is a form of recycling...

It saddens me that an elected official would interfere in something that costs nothing & gives many people happiness. Did someone complain? Since when, in a democracy, did the rights of a few take precedence over the rights of many? By hanging those pictures the staff are, in fact, recycling - at the Recycling Center! What better example could they set? As a former resident of Candia, I loved going to the dump. How often can people say that? I hope the selectman who made this decision is humble, mature & wise enough to realize he made a mistake.

Please let our dump employees take care of the dump. If you really want to do something for the town and our kids, take back our pond.

The art made it less "Sterile"! Keep the art!

It is a transfer station NOT a military barracks. A little whimsy is a good thing. Good grief Charley Brown as Lucy would say. Lighten up and enjoy.

It is interesting what a clown will do when you give him some power.

I have donated some of the artwork that has graced the otherwise dull walls of the recycling center. My sister, who lives in Candia, always enjoys seeing them on"dump runs". Please keep them!!

I am an artist and I have work in that gallery and I am proud of it! Big government comes to the small town. Another example of the erosion of our liberty enters into avenues of our daily lives. Simple expressions of joy and beauty denied because some low paid bureaucrat wants more self serving power. June England

I read the article. As a visitor to Candia I have accompanied a resident to the dump. I loved both the flowers and the art. This decision of the selectmen is petty and demeaning to the employees.

No one asked the citizens if they wanted the art work taken down.

I love that the guys that work the transfer station salvage the artwork that comes through. It shows they care about it. If it matters to them, it should matter to us. Leave it up and thank them for taking the time to do it.

I think most people enjoyed and appreciated the art. There is no good reason for removing it.

The art adds an element of fun to the dump, it's a shame one or two men have decided to take action on the towns behalf.
