How so? I've explained the process, this festival isn't any different than any other one, other than the fact that its new.

. Nonsense, as I already explained. She said at the time of the debate that it was for a place to let people walk along the roads, so more people could come out, AS OTHER CITIES HAVE DONE. Sure, it's not an urgent reason to shut down a road, but neither is any other festival.

Evidence please, that it only occurred after the fact.

How could a festival that's about opening roads to bikes and pedestrains when the lanes aren't needed proceed without without closing lanes?

No mention of a weekly August Festival.
