Sir: This letter is for Chatham council and mayor. The first thing I would like to know is why does Wheatley vote for things concerning Chatham and vice versa? The wards should be able to take care of their own problems. They did it before, why can’t they do it again?
Our mayors have been taking trips to eastern countries for the last 12 years and has it improved our life? I see no improvement.
Randy Hope says the community can’t sustain a zero tax increase or tax cuts without service cuts. London does it. Windsor does it. Three years and five years. How do they do it?
Chatham is tired of maybes for jobs to come. It’s election time and roads are being paved all over the place. Why? Is it an election ploy? Our city workers need supervision.
We have three new boat ramps and one is already out of service. Another waste of taxpayers’ money. How often are they even used?
Why are there fewer meetings now when there is so much more to vote on?
The OPP proposal should have been heard and taken into consideration instead of being shot down without a word being discussed. The taxpayers are just told to pay up and that the reasons don’t concern us.
Why is our city running a nursing home? They are having trouble running the city without all these other businesses getting attention.
Ed Broad has very good ideas. We need more people with new ideas.
There is so much more I could write about but this will do for now.
Leo Caron
Chatham
