Stay away from Lewisburg

All you really have to worry about is the banjo music in Lewisburg. Come on guys and gals get a grip on reality.

How can we have a meaningful discussion of the issue, are issues in a three minutes time period.
It just goes to show me if the Lewisburg Council adopts a three-minute time limit on free speech. It is a bunch of old men who have all ready got their minds make up, and don't really want to hear the issues, are discuss and correct the problems of our City.
If they have that little regard and time span to devote to the issues that come before them.
Then why did they run for the job in the first place?

Now I see where the 3-minute time period came from.
It did not take 3 minutes for a council member too say,” he knew he was going to hell.”
I guess that says it all in less than 3 minutes.
But I think they should rethink the issue.
Because I think it is going to take more than 3 minutes to save him.

Electric Bill

You tell me
What is a TVA Fuel Cost Adjustment on my bill.
What is a Environment Surcharge on there too.
does any one know?
How do they figure that.

Is it a new way for them to increase my electric bill?

They send me a Magazine from the electric company too.
Hell I never order it.

Just sell me electricy, don't sell or give me a bunch of junk.

Save Money
don't be calling me honey.

I don't know, but I would think, it would be a good symbolic jester for them to indicate to the taxpayers, they were serious about saving our tax dollars by cutting their own salary and pay.
Before they ask us, the taxpayer for extra taxes. Especially the economy in the shape it is and the direction the economy is heading.
A cut in their pay would be and excellent start.
Some only look at other surrounding county expenditures and never look at what the other surrounding counties are doing to save money.

In other words you do not have to have as much income, if your expenses are less.
Cut the out go rather than increase to inflow.

I really think each and every County Comm. Should be required to visit the Budget Directors Office and get to know the Budget Director as well as the Budget !!!!!!!!!!

That would be the first place I would start.
A good long heart to heart talk with her.

Then each Department head!!!!!!!!!!

Come think about this it would work really well with the city too.

Didn't the commission raise their salary about a year or two ago?

Reported in the Daily Hearld

MT. PLEASANT

Uniformed city workers using a city pickup trimmed tree limbs at the newly purchased home of City Manager.

Maybe this is the guy too contact if we see waste and fraud here.
Pictures are nice too.

The president of the Tennessee Center for Policy Research,a free market think tank and watchdog group, criticized Goode’s judgment.

“If this is true, this is obviously a violation of the public trust,” he said.“He should have to repay the taxpayers every single dime for the time and expense of these city employees cutting his trees.”

just my thoughts

Oh! they tell me the city of Lewisburg owns the house, our city manager lives in and his yard and trees too.
I thought all city managers lived in city own houses.
Guess not huh !!!!!

The council has always had a three minute time limit on citizen input. This is nothing new. If you want more time, all you have to do is call city hall and ask to be placed on the agenda. Then you can talk as long as you want.

Always, how long is Always! LOL
Hello " City Hall "

Yes

This is Butthead

Click

They hung up !!!!!!!!!!
Gee, Always

just my Opinion

Based up on Speculation
The Industrial Board wants too build a speculation building.
On speculation
Well you want something to speculate about
Speculate about the economy and the coming depression.
Before you speculate on building a speculation building.
Speculate on where the taxes, insurance, up keep,and interest for the load are coming from for that building.
Speculate where the water and electricy buster station is coming from, because you are going to have to have one down there my bet.
Why is it that a bunch of old men who are close to death want to leave their wife’s and families?
And the taxpayers something for the Town to remember them by while paying for their speculation.
Why don’t you speculate on how much you can save the taxpayers rather than how much you can buy or spend .
Speculation !!!!!

Spend my Tax money and Air Condition the Kid's busses.

Are Start School after Labor Day
Make a law and shorten the School Year.

i did that for years and i turned out fine.

shorten the school year that would be great but ummm why they already get a break every 9 weeks .if you want your child to not be out "in this weather" put them in home school. if it not an option then you've exhausted all your efforts and just go with the flow.

and one more thing "Are Start School after Labor Day"

what? that isnt really a sentence.

I as a parent like the occasional breaks which requires school to start early and end late.
I dont think our new director has his act as together as we hope. The system has taken him in.
I tried to talk to him once about problems here and he seemed not to want to listen. Oh well, his loss. I dont care what seminars or countries he visited, only honest non-biasis opinions will guide him right. He seemed to think he had it all figured out. I guess he proved himself wrong.

I >>read by<< that person who cant keep his "our" and "are" right. As soon as I come across that word, no matter who he signs on as, I stop reading. How dumb can he be? And he wants people to take him seriously?

I Care less if you that me seriously or not
For I am like a train
Going no where
Except blowing smoke in the air.
I use the same name
But ain’t it a shame
Someone else wanted to use my name.
So I don’t care ideas is all I blow
At least I got it out of me any way
You just sit there and pay.
Taxes will blow you away
Some day.
