6. Adjournment
Very interesting how come the mayor and council did not know about privatizing the yard waste in our town. Where did this come from. We find it very suspicious. As a village taxpayers we are concerned what’s next to be privatized and our services will go down.
Thank you concerned resident
Yes I was watching it on TV very interesting. It looks to me that someone got caught doing something a bit not kosher. It looks like they were trying to slide privatization right through under their feet. Again we’re dealing with dirty business again in town hall,More and more scams. We would like names who is behind this.
Possibly Coin Boy ( s ) With Rakes ( again )
Hope not…lets be sure..springs around the corner..
We don’t get it. ?
Failing any pick up would have this required open public bidding
as next step ?
