Halifax regional councillor Jennifer Watts wants big-ticket events to move off the Halifax Common to another location.
Last week, the councillor for Connaught-Quinpool put forward a motion that will be debated by HRM councillors at their meeting on Tuesday. She is seeking to move all major concerts from the Halifax Common to the Garrison Grounds beginning next year. She cited concerns from nearby residents about noise and disruption as the principal cause for her motion.
What do you think of the suggestion? Should concerts like last year's Paul McCartney and KISS concerts be moved from the Common to another location? If you think the Common is a good location for big concerts, what do you like about the location?
