Can the money not be spent on eradicating vandalism, drunk and disorderly behaviour and the drug culture that is growing in the area?
Should we not offer something that will stop the boredom in the area? To be honest if I was in my teens and early twenties, living in Ossy, I would hang around and drink just to kill the boredom and hope the day ends soon. The devil finds work for idle hands. What are we doing to stop hands being idle? There is a lot of potential and talent going down the drain as we do not invest in young people.
Think carefully what we are building and what is left to go to ruin.

You've asked a question and pretty much answered it in one post.
Vandalism, bad behaviour etc - provide something for teens to do so they're not idle - turn the theatre into an arts centre.
So I'm a little unsure about your angle on this.
