Greenwich Society Votes Down Park Protestor’s Motion

February 10, 2009 By Rob Powell

A Special General Meeting of the Greenwich Society was held on January 29th to vote on a motion put forward by member Michael Goldman, who is also the Chairman of NOGOE. The motion put before the SGM was that:

That this Society will oppose the construction or use of a course in Greenwich Park for the purpose of the cross country event to be held as part of the 2012 London Olympic Games.

The motion was defeated by 86 votes to 58.

A second motion stating “that constructive dialogue the LOCOG and the other Olympic organisations is in the best interests of the Society” went unopposed.
