Council guarantees loan for Winter Festival of Lights

From the Niagara Falls Review:

The lights will stay on this winter after city council agreed to guarantee a $400,000 line of credit for the Winter Festival of Lights its manager said was needed to pay its outstanding bills.

The finance department staff opposed the move, saying the city shouldn’t act as a bank for community groups.

Festival manager Dino Fazio said without city support, he would have to “drastically alter the festival or certainly look at its demise.”
