The issue is soon to go to a meeting of the Licensing Committee.

It would be very helpful if the councillors could see (in the local press), letters of concern from potential festival attendees and tourists. To demonstrate the real threat of the policy they currently hold and to get them to ask themselves what exactly they have to lose by changing it.

This outside support, at this time, could make all the difference, please help.
