Charges were made that the dancers had caused cracks in the concrete--charges that were hotly denied by the company that built the ramp.

			In 1989 concern was raised about the effects loud music and dancing might have on the [[TOWN CLOCK]] tower. Representatives of [[DURRANT ARCHITECTS INC.]], the Dubuque firm that designed the pre-cast four-columned pedestal on which the clock rests, denied that either source of vibrations would be enough to cause damage to the structure.
