I wish I could say that I could get the same from the Tribune, but we all know that isn't going to happen. Perhaps, you could enlist others to help in your endeavor. Thanks Again.

Keep giving us your take on the city Govt. I have not stopped and will continue to pursue my avenues to keep them Honest. More people in the city should take notice of what is going on to them. they are going to get the short end of the stick if they don't get involved into thier ultimate fate. You have done a good job of keeping some of us informed of what is going on , hopefully others may try to get informed by reading your info. Marty Don’t give up .

I have sat in on trials where he is the defending attorney. I actually found myself serving pitty on his client!! The key to a good defense is having a lawyer that will ACTUALLY DEFEND you!! He has got to be the laziest person I have ever met! He didn't ask one question that required thought and research! Not even once! Why are we again pooring good money after bad?

The County has recieved many comments to that fact. One thing that has a lot of people concerned is the way the City goes about annexation. They annex in certain areas (the road they annexed recently is a good example) and then use the "wholely surrounded" clause in the law to force annex others. It seems that Malesich is of the opinion that ANY annexation is good - regardless of whether the people want annexed - and he doesn;t give a damn about what it is doing to those annexed. Until there is some common ground reached between the City (and the way that things are done) and those living in the County, this will continue to be a problem. I am glad that you are planning on being there. The only way that things change is to get those interested involved. One voice (even one as... determined... as mine) is not going to get it done. It will take many voices raised before the Powers that Be even begin to listen...

You would need to continue a buffer zone and where who it all end. Oh, I know in the city. Malesich during his speech at the election debates already said he wanted to get rid of the urban sprawl and annex it all into the city starting with the east side.He also stated if we weren't with him we were against him and we needed to get out and leave. I want nothing to do with living in the city. That is an appalling thought. I certainly hope others out here remember his words and stand up.

A number of former Councilmen and Councilwomen have gone on record already that this vote never occured and I am reasonably sure that this action was not in keeping with required practice and policy. It should be interesting to see how this City Council addresses the situation. Moorcat Thank you for the correction, Mr. Brenneke.

It was in response to a request I made in writing on6-27-08. If I missed a meeting I still read the minutes from those meetings and I CAN ATTEST TO THE FACTS THAT NO VOTE OF THE COUNCIL WAS EVER TAKEN TO FUND THE FULL PROJECT. Also various councilmen have told me no vote was ever made by the council as a whole up to the time the pit was placed on my property after denying them the right to do so. Maybe Mr Gilbert should refresh his memory or get his facts straight as I am getting tired of His BS. The response by Mr Gilbert was to me rather than Mr Warner.
