The new Board will be seated this week (okay, it is the old Board with two re-elected members) and need to get back to the business of governing and managing the City. The Mayor needs to come to the realization his aldermanic candidates (Red and De) didn't cut the mustard and the voters have spoken. What needs to be done?
Do you walk/run the City streets? Do you ride a bike on the City streets? Do you drive a car on City streets? If you walk/run (no, sidewalks simply are not feasible Red) on the streets it becomes apparent how many of the streets need to be replaced/repaired/crack sealed. The slower you go over the streets the more visible the needs are. Yes we have road money stashed at Platte County, Is it enough. Ask your Mayor/Alderman. Is there a written plan in place. Ask your Mayor/Alderman. Yes, it is nice to see West Ridge and all the new housing. No, the roads are not in good shape up there and deteriorating at a rapid rate. It wasn't all that long ago there was extensive patching there, at...$?.
Question for you, the reader. What if the County Road Tax was not renewed? How would that impact WL? Is that even possible?

You're road question brought to mind . . .
Driving into Weatherby from Barry onto Eastside, one is hit by the Grassis sign. It seems so in your face. I’m wondering why it’s there. Assume they contributed money to the sign monuments. I guess if they had paid for the whole sign monument then maybe it would be understandable. Many people here at Weatherby have given an extraordinary amount of their time volunteering at Weatherby. They don’t have that kind of money but shouldn’t their time equal a plaque somewhere at the lake? I don’t think money should be the deciding factor (if that is the case) in having a sign put up in your honor when there are other equal accomplishments that should be recognize. A sign like that come across to me that “We are an important family, above some, at the lake and should be recognize for it.” I have absolutely nothing against the Grassis family but with such a small community there are other families that should be equally recognized and not just one family singled out.
