commentary

To say that anybody is against food, fun, kids, and the Festival is just ridiculous, of course. Simply absurd. The residents are against constant and continued overpayments for each and every project the City undertakes. We are against city officials allowing the tax monies to be squandered at every turn. We wonder why each and every facet of the City is losing money and we are being asked to pay more money in taxes to make up for those disasters. If throwing away tax money is supposed to be progress, then YES, we are against THAT form of progress. Dr. Mel P. Johnson

questions persist

What are the chances that, when the old gym is being demolished, a beam or support will give way and cause MAJOR damage? So much so that city officials will suggest we build a NEW pool to go with our NEW gym? Adding several million dollars in debt to the taxpayers burden and making necessary FURTHER tax increases? Anybody taking odds out there?
