fact, it was all about the almighty dollar.
the city gets a kickback from mandatory service
they get another (separate) kickback for the number of customers.
I wish the city would leave the poor people alone and go after the wealthy.
Did you know you can own $100,000 piece of land and pay less than $250 taxes on it, just because it don't have a residence on it. But a $100,000 house/land combo gets around $900 in taxes.
All because the assessed value of land is much much lower. If you can afford a quarter million dollar piece of land you should be paying taxes on the value, not just paying on 5%. .
This town is as crooked as the federal government. Making laws for the people, while writing themselves out.
screw PETA. And just because some animals are trained through abuse don't mean all are.
And .... "Animals weren't meant to perform tricks" ? Heck, I don't think I'm meant to jump through hoops, but my boss sure expects me to, . . . . and obviously has me trained to since I still have a job.
I'm sure the people complaining are the same ones who threw a fit years ago when it was mentioned that a Hooters restaurant may be coming here to Mayberry. There is more skin to be seen at the public pool in the summer. Heck, I've seen more skin at Walmart with these girls/women wearing low-rise jeans that are 2 sizes to small.
Whether anyone likes it or not, the girl getting the tat could have very well walked don't the middle of the street in a string bikini, showing WAY more skin, and be doing absolutely nothing wrong. People need to quit being crybabies.
Yes, thank you Parks and Rec for wasting $20,000 plus on labor and paint. What a waste of my tax dollars. Because, anyone with a little common sense knows a mile marker is not a sign of good health or a good workout.

I encourage everyone to vote for a new mayor. Even if the worst candidate wins, that person will still be better then the current mayor we have.
maybe we can get a new city administrator too.
