| Comment | One aspect I have an issue with is the amount of time these events render the space unusable for, and I think this could/should be drastically improved. A 3-day festival often actually means the loss of public amenity for weeks, with fences and portaloos etc sitting in place for far longer than necessary, and then in the case of parks the grass being fucked for the rest of the year.
So I'm happy for these things to take place where they're reasonable, but I'd like to see a lot tighter constraints placed on how they're built/torn down, because as far as I can tell there doesn't seem to be much pressure placed on organisers to minimise the impact. |
