Fairhope, Alabama
CORONAVIRUS FEARS
City council members and representatives for the annual Arts n' Crafts Festival (Lang Floyd) and concurrent Eastern Shore Art Center Show (Bryant Whelan) mutually decided to call off the 3-day festival set to begin March 20th; but try to reschedule for later in the year, if logistically possible.
Councilman Brown dissented, wanting to go ahead and let people decide for themselves to attend.
Both sides informally agreed not to hold the other in breach of the festival's contract with the city (to allow use of city streets).
Respective boards of directors of the organizations were to meet later about rescheduling the events; mayor Wilson said the city may be able to help with associated costs (rescheduling).
Over 200K visitors usually attend the yearly event.

Unlike others with limited knowledge and expertise, you declined to dictate.
As Benjamin Franklin (far wiser than anonymous Internet scolds) once said:
"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."

No, I'm guessing that Sweet Land quoted Franklin for the point you missed.
I've read your post three times, and its incoherence remains impenetrable--much like the overreactions of the media and our political class, neither of whom deserve our trust.
Caution is warranted, indeed, but so is a sense of proportion. It may seem counterintuitive, but Mr. Brown is the only Council member who did NOT act upon his ignorance. Just a little critical thinking makes that clear.
LOL, Nostradamus.
Please share the next Florida Powerball numbers.
Sorry, we forgot to issue a trigger warning, Honey. It wasn't fair of us to expect a gender-studies major to know that people have differing points of view. Go along back to your dorm room now, cuddle up with your stuffed animals, and have a piece of chocolate and good long cry.
One would have thought that there should have been a force majeure clause in the contract to safeguard both parties from breach of contract during an "act of God".
