The mayor's position on the bride barrier

Here's what the mayor's committee wrote to the Bridge Authority:

It's a long letter and while I read it, it did so quickly and didn't even notice - as somebody else pointed out - that there are misspellings in it. I was more interested in the purpose and I don't agree with that at all.
I just love the suggestion that there would be volunteers offering to patrol the bridge and prevent people from jumping.
But my absolute favorite is this, "In sum, the program could result in the bridge being known not only for its design and location, but as an international symbol of the humanity of this region."
