Everyone in charge has to go…they waste our money with a stunning alacrity and then they ask for more. Stop it, vote every incumbent out, none of them are worth kicking a hog in the backside.

That means sidewalks, drainage and ‘street trees’ cost $1 million every 528 ft or $1,800 per foot. Wow!

Hmmmm.

I am going to start comparing the cost of everything now with the Sale of that Golf Course.

If I can raise $1,300,000 can I buy the Golf Course?
