Dark Clouds over High Street?

I have noticed that the crowds on High Street are less packed on 3rd Friday then several months ago. Some have said the crime has sent folks away, some have said the kids. Others have stated their preference less masses on High Street so that folks can appreciate the art. There have been discussions and debates over how to promote business on High Street and new business group has cropped up as well.
In my humble opinion, we have to listen BETTER! Human beings being what they are, like to give their ideas and tend not to listen to contrary opinions, lest their ego's become hurt. We are going though changes here in Millville and we need to listen because frankly we need each other. Failure to respect and listen to others could threaten the progress that Millville has worked so hard to acheive.
