Keeping Your Eye On The Ball

I know it is hard to think about baseball as we had our White Easter, but allow me to use a baseball saying to make a point.

Our son Matthew has played "ball" since 5th grade.  A common mistake hitters make is to take their eye off the ball, even a split second...thus a swing and a miss (my problem with golfing, always wanting to enjoy seeing the flight of the ball instead of keeping my eye on it.).

The same applies, potentially for the City of WL.  Unless you missed it, the bonanza of building in West Ridge is over and the revenue gone or greatly reduced.  My advice, keep your eye on the ball.  For the City, are you watching the Zona Rosa debt debacle and the county commissioners talking about using Road Tax revenues to bail out Zona?  If they raid the Road Tax bucket, how will we pay for roads in WL?  What if the commissioners decide to reduce the tax and up the ante for the Sheriff's department?  It's nice for the Mayor to promise to "keep your taxes low".  Do we have enough funds to cover necessary improvements for sewer in the future?  Serious discussions are required to keep our eye on the ball.

We need the best team in place to keep the City's eye on the ball.
