Freedom Of Speech would like to say:
Naturally, certain Council critics want to make this into a major issue in the upcoming 2007 primary. But the reality is more complex than the "Council Blamers" will admit.
It's too easy to blame certain Councilman when the bottom line is Garner has mismanaged our tax dollars. Jimmy continues to play the "blame game" with us citizens.
We're a glorified grass-cutting, fridge. & furniture on the porch, broken down cars and a Slumlord Town.
Until we have an administration who will do something about this problem, things will not change. It is a no-win situation at this point. There's a lot of apathy on the Council. They rubber-stamp everything Jimmy's administration wants.
If our mayor would stop blowing tax dollars on his "feel good projects" just maybe we could get our town cleaned up.
Maybe we can add a few weed wackers and a new truck into our 2007 budget.
What does it take to make you all understand the City of New Albany is broke!
What we don't understand is why a certain group of citizens can be outraged over things pertaining to cleanliness of property. But not outraged about 44 million dollars spent on a sewer system that doesn't work! You figure that one out.
Freedom Of Speech hopes you enjoy your 15 minutes of fame.
