Thanks!! :( About 1 year ago there was a cross walk traffic fatality in town, you'd think the city would be well disciplined in the need for traffic safety and basic upkeep. And what is the council talking about this month? A canopy to cover some old rusty industrial scrap metal behind the museum. Hoffman Hell Raiser,

Sign me up! Roger,

After the fire you would have figured the city would have asked for the funds to buy a tow truck to keep these streets clear. Isn’t the author of this post doing the job of the PW director?

The savings could have been applied to the dollar amount they are asking for now. They could have met us half way during the budget process in 2008 when they were deciding everyone’s COLA’s.

The ones on Center Drive are pretty badly faded. It's ridiculous they let these things go. Don't even come to me with another levy until these simple priorities are worked.
