Clearly, this letter was not so much about the Longsjo as much as about how little this council knows about and supports its businesses. Little by little this council&nbsp;has been&nbsp;attempting to erode any forward progress in the community and wants to put forward the perception that Fitchburg is not a place to do business or have fun. Joe Solomito recelently made comments at a forum that it was dark and dirty and needed more police. Here&#039;s the truth - more open businesses, more events, more people living in the downtown corridor, and more foot traffic make any perceived crime recede.
