Wanting the best

I refer to comments by Michael Gillian (Peninsula News, August 21) regarding the Ettalong Beach Foreshore Management Plan and particularly his offensive remarks regarding anyone who has commercial interest in Ettalong Beach.

Since when was it an offence to have a business in town and be involved in community projects?

I've been involved in the upgrading of our town centre for years and look forward to the day when our town beach will be improved to something we can all be proud of.

I and many others have a positive attitude and want only the best for Ettalong and the Peninsula.

That's what being a true local is all about.
