The bureaucrats finally backed down and let Bushy's keep the spot. They clearly realized that trying to squeeze out a local staple for a pointless tender process was never going to fly. We won this one, but keep watching them to make sure they do not try this nonsense again.

For the last 15 years or so Bushy's had the right to put their tent there, paying an randsome amount, why put it on tender?

The momentum we have built makes it clear that the city cannot just ignore the people who value Bushy's history. They think they can auction off our heritage for a quick buck but they severely underestimated how many of us are watching their every move.

Just leave them be. They pay their way and the community enjoys it. Stop making everything complicated.
