The only pro-nouns that mean anything.
Ok money has been spent in what some consider a dead downtown. New businesses down there aren’t complaining and neither are their patrons.
You mention grant funds. So you would rather see the city allow those funds to go to other communities. There are guidelines and the Schuler woman who gets those grants has done a great job of getting money.
So let’s talk about uptown and the suburbs. A newly remodeled K Mart building complete with a new parking lot layout that was very needed and used TIF funds according to meeting minutes. A new Ollies and still to come a better Dollar Store complex.
Improvements to the sewer system and dumping a treatment plan to avoid catastrophic pension debt. Last nights rain would have flooded several streets in town.
I’m not happy about the new splash pad but it fits the bill for young kids and families. Again grant money from the Schuler woman at work.
I mean people can complain about trash and water bills but I’m not sure I’ve heard too many other negatives.
I guess there may be someone with enough money to waste in running against this young man, after all people are buying electric cars. Parkinson will get at least one and maybe two more terms before anyone can pick up enogh votes to scare him.
Always appreciate your comments BeMac. You present them in a well thought out manner and it makes for good debate.
