The ad hoc advisory group "Advantage Watertown" this morning discussed an upcoming meeting with City Council and chatted about a variety of other topics from convention centers to parking to the Woolworth and Mercy challenges.
The volunteer group serves as a sounding board for various issues and advises the Council from the perspective of interested citizens.
The Chair of the County Leg and I serve as members of the committee which is chaired by John Bartow who runs the Tug Hill Commission.
Advantage Watertown has been criticised by some lawmakers who see it as a "shadow government", but my take is that it is just a well intentioned discussion group who voice is amplified because the media chooses to cover it.

Look at the City Lights closley, the Top section is held on by 2 or 4 bolts, they clamp down on the post, in a "stiff wind" they bend and almost fall off. Hey Advantage H20 town should look at who the JCIDA lends $$$$$$$$$$$ to.
