A merger would be greatly beneficial. Too bad it probably won't ever happen. Between Granite, Pontoon, Madison, Nameoki, & Chouteau, and Mitchell, I'd estimate there are around 60,000 people. Talk about eliminating government overhead!
But more importantly, we'd have much more clout in county & state politics, as I don't think any town in MadCo or the entire Metro East is gonna' come close to cracking 60k anytime soon.
