The Energizer Bunny

There is civic involvement, then there is roll up your sleeves and get dirty.  You decide regarding Tanya Finn:

  • Initiated City Recycling Program (way before current curbside)
  • de facto leader of the 4th of July Fireworks for the past 10 years
  • Past President, The Women's Club
  • Past President and Vice President, WL Park Board
  • Past Vice President, The Garden Club
  • Co-Chair, Dam Party
  • Co-Chair, 75th Dam Party
  • Co-Chair, 4th of July Parade and Games
  • Chairman, WLIC Credentials and Election
  • WLIC Space and Docks Committe
  • Provides Christmas Lights and Flowers for City Hall
But wait, there's more...

The Godmother

I'll kick off the WL election season with a look at the alderman race on the East Side...
Well, that's easy because there is only one person on the ballot, incumbent Tanya Finn.  Barring a successful underground write in campaign of an opponent, Tanya will one of the two East Side aldermen...again.

Ms Finn has been an alderman for 11 years and vanquished challengers in the past, Stevenson and Surma to name a couple.  Tanya has been a WL resident for 44 years (looking at the changing demographics of WL, I would say a number of residents weren't even born when she took up residence here).  She brings a valuable perspective of WL, not just the City, but the WLIC as well.  If it's happening, Tanya is probably involved or most certainly knows about it. 

Need examples?  Check back for more on my next post.

ICED

This just in from Alderman Clark:

Republic Trash/Recycling is running behind because of the adverse weather this week.  They will attempt to start today in Weatherby Lake, but more than likely will have to finish tomorrow, Saturday.
