When the City council voted to give $30,000 of general fund money for a study of pedestrian lighting…Read More (lit up palm trees) on Seacoast, not one Little League person showed up or spoke up. If you don't attend every meeting (except the secret ones) they do whatever the City Manager wants. The residents and kids are not a priority. Go to the meetings or live with the stupidity

When you pop shots of tequilla and a beer for a chaser several times and then get into your car and…Read More drive you are endangering people. I do not believe it is an invasion of privacy its a lack of concern for his responsabilites and the community that he represents.

Nope..he's a Public Figure...and as such must be accessible to us...and actually should be......as…Read More it is he is unable to be found..never holds public hearings to give his assessment on what's happening with this Grand Jury thing or about anything. So I guess now we know where he is.

Forcing the blame back on the court's for the release of these felon's will not solve the problem…Read More tho, A workable answer is to de=criminalize all state marijuana laws and release all those convicted of marijuana except thos ewith a conviction for distributing over 10 Lbs. Then take all those with federal convictions and drop them off at a federal court for them to deal; with ! We can not afford to keep minor marijuana prisoners in state jails any longer. These tow actions would make all the room we need in outr state prisons !

Candy,
Spriggs and Patton are supposed to be researching a Youth Advisory Committee (including a…Read More name with a better acronym).
Sign me up for a Youth committee. With 3 kids, from teen to toddler, I have a very vested interest in keeping activities for all ages. Plus Marc wants on. As a teen he can be a leader to younger kids - like he is in Coronado.
It is just those of us who want to work for our city's betterment, seem to be shot down.

Why can't the Sportspark offer the same type of programs that the YMCA does? I think it would be…Read More great for the City to have have a Parks and Rec's Advisory Committee. The advisory committee could help the rec center establish some new programs and apply for the 1000's of grants available out there.
Lets not forget about the over 800 people in IB who signed a petition and still want a dog park. What about the need for a park in the Oneonta area? A Parks and Rec's Advisory Board could help council with funding and also take some of the work load off of staff. This wouldn't cost the City a dime, sounds like a win-win to me. If the advisory board had some dedicated volunteers, they could establish themselves as a non-profit and apply for grants themselves and help the City pay for these projects. That would free up money in the general fund and allow us to keep our Sportspark, Skatepark and Little Leagues to ourselves. Out sourcing should be our last resort.
