Even some cities do that too, especially if it's a town that has some major parking problems. Too bad you don't hardly ever see parking meters anymore.

One thing that certainly didn't materialize was the drunks that were promised to be laying all over the streets once beer sales took effect. In fact, Manchester's DUI rate hasn't been any worse than normal, and to be certain there will always be some jackass out there that will drink and drive, regardless of the Wet/Dry status of a location. In just the first month of legal sales, Manchester got over $10,000 in tax revenue, and that was with just a couple of small stores selling beer only, and that figure has probably went up since then. What the city does with that money afterwards, well, that's why you need to see what they are using the tax revenue for, and to make certain it's being used in an honest fashion.

Lets try to keep the Harmons harmless while we have a chance to do so. Mr. Harmon had this position long enough and if he didnt get his cup full then well that is his problem. No one owes the Harmons anything and I really hope Harrison gets the position.

Yes, you are correct, the new alcohol sales ordinance has generated many thousands that can be utilized to support renovations to the community pool, parks & recreations, downtown beautification, and other essential services. the one wrote: <quoted text>

Stivers the pos will need every vote he can mustard up to beat Hoskins! The only actual friend Robert Stivers has in Frankfort is David Williams himself, and they're both rather pompous asses, pardon the French. They're both very important people only in their own minds. I'm a Republican, but as you can tell, I'm not very impressed with either of them. I'm not really sure how effective Ralph Hoskins would really be as a senator, but one would have to at least hope that he would be an improvement over either of the above mentioned senators.

Agree, it has impacted the entire community with several more jobs, several new business ventures, and many thousands of new visitors that are spending money that would never have been spent here prior to the ordinance. It has dramatically reduced bootleggers and may have also reduced and or illeminated some corrupt practices. Actually, the county does receive some tax revenues from those new workers and the payroll tax they have continuously subjected the workers to for many years now. me-me wrote: <quoted text>It sure did affect the county.

I would suggest that Ralph could be very effective. He has a long standing professional network of eduation and political collaborations that can help him serve the distrit well.
For example, Ralph secured the funds for a much needed ATC in Jackson County to help local youth learn skills that can enable them to be more employable and competitive in the workforce.
Ralph would have an open opporunity to communicate with the Governor who still has significant time in office and that opportunity could be utilized to support important economic development efforts within the district.
