BURLINGTON, ON
Council will meet today to review Staff reports, one of which would mean the end of Sound of Music(SoM) as the city has known it for decades.
The City Staff report suggests that the SoM people have not come forward with a sound business plan. Without such a plan, the city appears ready to walk away from an event that has poured tens of thousands of dollars into the pockets of the hospitality sector in the city. The Gazette reported on this last week. Link below.
Has the last note from the Sound of Music been heard?

How much does the “Hospitality “ sector give back to fund this program?
