The above quote is a version of the Stonecutters Credo sent to aShortChronicle by Jamie Ramsden, one of the leaders in the Save Davidson movement. That was back on August 19th. By that time the activist group had been pounding the rock for months with blow after blow.
Today, the Beaty Street RFP rock split.
Was it the protests, the packed Town Hall meetings, the countless emails, the lemonade stands, the signs, the car magnets, the magnet mobile, the t-shirts, the records requests, the videos, the growing number of Facebook likes, the relentless fact checkers, the SHINE events, the information sessions, the Save Davidson Run for the Green participants, the constant drip of conflicting information, or the Save Davidson funded appraisal?
We may never know why, but today the Town of Davidson posted this...
A great example of citizen activism and perseverance came to fruition today. An unbelievable amount of dedication and work went into putting a stop to a crazy idea that never should have been allowed to get this far. Everyone involved needs to take pride in what has been accomplished, take a day or two to breath it all in. Then, continue to work to make sure it does not happen again.
On November 7th, make sure that happens by getting out to vote.
