Anonymous Donation to Repair 'YES' Signs

By Pete McIntyre 107.5 KISSFM

There's a new development to the story about some Coldstream referendum signs that were
vandalised. More than 20 of the signs supporting a YES vote were torn down or destroyed earlier this week. Now, an anonymous Coldstream resident has made a one thousand dollar donation to the YES campaign to make up for the damage and mend some fences. Bill Tarr from the Outdoor Sports User Group says a note that came with the money, said the person supported the NO side, but was disappointed at what took place. 'This is very important for our community because we really feel that the community does not need to be divided on this and that we can work together. This is very impressive for somebody to come forward and offer up to replace the signs.'Tarr says the money was left in an envelope at the work place of councillor Jim Garlick who passed it on to the group
