{"status": "ok", "message": "Success!", "html": "\u003Cp\u003EBeing \u0026quot;high and mighty\u0026quot; and being \u0026quot;actively involved in the suburb\u0026quot; arent mutually exclusive, it may just be a \u0026quot;high and mighty\u0026quot; group. In fact the example you gave of helping change the name to 'Woodbridge' could be seen by some to only reinforce notions of elitism. It had been Midland for 100+ years, and while I support it for the name's equally strong groundings in local heritage, at the time a lot of the talk flying around was also about distinguishing contemporary difference to Midland. A lot of elitist notions were bandied about at the time, and my parents certainly didnt support it. Only being here for 13 years I can understand why you felt so strongly to actively help push for it. My parents will always refer to it as Midland as they married, lived and raised a family here and it has importance emotionally for them as that name. For me being less tied emotionally to it myself, I can also appreciate the strong historical value of the new name, but I would have been equally happy staying a part of Midland.\u003C/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003EI love what Midland is becoming, reinventing itself, developing vibrancy but still being reverent to its heritage, and building on its role as a regional centre. Yes some mistakes are made in that journey, but in my opinion this isnt one of them. Living as part of this growing exciting regional centre means accepting it will need to provide services and infrastructure to serve the region, and at times this might be at the expense of a few people's utopia. This project is another great step forward in making Midland (including the bit now called Woodbridge) something special for all the surrounding areas of the region to enjoy and visit. I honestly put this project up there with the hospital, university and growing arts and cafe areas as key components of making life in this region more healthy, enjoyable and able to be celebrated. \u003C/p\u003E\u0026nbsp;"}
