I just uploaded a PDF of the draft proposal put together by the Bristol Downtown Development Corp. A final version will likely be sent out early next week.
You can read it by clicking on this link
(By the way, those of you with documents that the public might find interesting can fax them to me, anonymously if necessary, and I'll do my best to get them posted as PDFs. Just send me an email to scollins@bristolpress.com and I'll write back with the fax number to use.)

Wow, what progress. You could have gone to any lawyer and have him/her write up the same thing written up 3 years ago. Big deal.
never enough is it
"Wow, what progress. You could have gone to any lawyer and have him/her write up the same thing written up 3 years ago. Big deal."
And it would have been written up by that lawyer (uh, Kosta Diamantis, for example?) with no input from the people. The significance of doing it this way is no one can say that the people of Bristol had no say in the final outcome. If you think that's trivial, you're part of the problem.

I'm part of the problem? Are you on drugs? Idiots like you are "the problem".
This project has been nothing but a bad joke from the beginning.
You're too stupid to understand the context of what is posted. In other words an RFP could have been written up years ago without all this malarkey.
And how do "the people" have a say in this except they perhaps have a referendum on what proposal is not the worst? And what makes "the people" experts on what would be best suited for that area anyway? Sometimes "the people" have no idea what they're doing (case in point: Jimmy Carter).
A private developer should be able to build what is best suited econmically for the area without the meddling of the gov't and a few activist-idiots (like you).
one more thing...
The BDDC will make the decision here, not the people. What are you you talking about? Actually we're probably better off them making the decision than "the people", but maybe not. I'm not too impressed with this gang of screw-balls so far.
One other point; what developer is actually going to want to do this, except for maybe Carpenter? Why diodn't we just give him the friggin land and let him take care of it? That's what's going to happen anyway. What private company is going to want to do what this RFP requests unless the gov't is going to dramatically subsidize it?
on behalf of myself to myself: Better said!
As Lowell Weicker would have said" There they go again". Nothing would make them happy so why try?
...absolutely right 5:34. There's just no pleasing some people.
That's the reaction I would expect from an elitist snob. What's the matter too many words for you to digest?
Have you read the RFP? What private developer is going to want to adhere to all those measures in an area which appearently is a dud as far as commercial marketability?
Cry , Cry ,cry that's all you do anyway. Usless is the proper word for you. Ya don't need a lot of words to describe you !! 3:09 that is !! We know who you are. We can tell by the crying towel.

What a rebuttal. What was written that isn't true then (sob)?
February 21, 2008 4:56 PM:
Ya (sic) don't huh? What exactly is "usless" (sic)? Is that like the saying "no I in team"?
Sounds like you're pretty broken up or you need to finish 6th grade.
