Mayor Bill Foster Backpedals on Pier Closing Date

Less than two weeks after suggesting that the Pier could be closed October 1 of this year, Stpetersblog reports that Foster has promised that the Pier won't be closed until May 2013 at the earliest. No reason was given for this back-tracking on the part of the Mayor, but he clearly changed his mind since talking to Council about it or he wouldn't have suggested a closing date 7 months earlier.
