REGARDING the council's suggestion that street vendors are needed in Bromsgrove to enhance its character as a market town, many older people remember Bromsgrove as a much-loved and busy town.

I cannot remember vendors, only on fair day. We have enough rubbish in the town and this decision will make it worse.

It seems as if the council does not know how to spend our money wisely. On-street businesses will ultimately lead to a closure of many of our cafes. Is this what the council wants?
