Last night 2 Aldermen made their governing philosophies clear.
Remember what they said when your taxes are raised again.
First, listen to Amelia Buragas. This comment came after the spending for flamingos passed and spending for new filters at the water treatment plant.
.
Now listen to Alderman Lower on why he voted against the flamingos:
I lived 2 blocks from Miller Park for 37 years, only went to the zoo MAYBE half a dozen times. Haven’t been there since. I call THAT quality of life. I also call our streets reason to buy, own, and DRIVE a 4 wheel drive vehicle. I guess water treatment is 2nd rate to pink fowl? What next? Let’s build a 1/2 million $ shuffleboard court at Miller Park.
Fowl versus Foul. And, the fowl get their own filtration system.
At least 2 council members had some fiscal responsibility. The others are absolutely worthless and irresponsible.
