Not Too Late [Re "Burlington City Councilors Agree to Study Police Staffing," September 10, online]: When I awoke at 2:30 a.m., still stirred up after testifying before the Burlington City Council, there — at 1:15 a.m.! — was Courtney Lamdin's report on the amended resolution on police numbers.

It's likely to boost the school population, as well as the shoppers at local businesses. This is a slam-dunk, town-vitalizing win-win. The objections to the plan — including urging that any affordable housing be built at the local gravel pit or at the "working-class" section of town — strike me as the same self-serving and hackneyed assertions that prevent Vermont from attaining the economic and cultural robustness of a diverse population, and instead drive the population…
