If a bit of money and a little TLC was given to some of the places mentioned thn we wouldnt be too badley of. Unfortunately there seems to be no cash no incentive or any belief from those who can change it for the better to do anything. If some effort was put in Accy could start to recover even if it is somewhat slow and the fruits wont be seen for a few years. When it is decided to try and fix some of the issues and try and put us back on the map the town will be so far behind that when it does catch up other areas will be halfway throught the next portion of redevelopment.

The public needs to get behind what they want and push for change that benifits them their children and their grandchildren. All it would need is that little boot up the bahookie and then the ball will start rolling. Ok it will be an uphill struggle but if the outcome is what was campaigned for and is to the likeing of the majority then it would be worth it. As there is nothing constructive being done then it was always look grey and bleak with no hope of improvement. Lets try and return to the days of civic pride and then we will have plenty to be proud of and would be able without critism to brag about it.

HBC needs to have a long hard think about what it can do to improve the bourghs lot and do it with the help of those that live there and not via a consultancey with an expensive outside group. The money the could save by using a bit of gumption would be available for projects that need it and not in the pockets of what can be best discribed as "gold diggers" preying on dithering local authorities.
