A wonderful downtown pedestrian area has been ruined because a few people didn't like the noise.

It sounds like the city's seasonal approach is reasonable. Winter in Michigan is no joke and you pretty much need a car to get around.

Downtown Northville in the winter was the bomb. Cozy up by a fireplace. Eat in a private cabin. Walk around with a warm beverage.

The real kicker is the lady in the interview. They want to kill the whole thing... Which world be awful. I love having a safe area to walk, hang and eat with my family and dogs. That's now in jeopardy.
