I am introducing a bill about dog control. It is aimed at the owner of the person in possession of the dog and not at the dog itself. There have been several instances of dog attacks in the city and it is time that we held the owners responsible and put some teeth, pardon the pun into the ordinance of dog control.
The outlook of Senator Chuck Gross’s bill to help out on the property taxes via the casino money does not look promising for this year. Maybe we can get it through next year.
Call Senator Gross and let him know you support his bill.
On another issue, that being the consolidation of the fire districts and the City of St. Charles fire department and the county fire districts, just want you to know that I support the County Council and Executive Orthwerth in this endeavor. It is time we get back to supporting the taxpayers and not employees.
Well the convention center is going to open soon. It is my understanding that the couty sports authority is going to spend $500,000 on parties. That is a disservice to the taxpayers because that extra money should come to the city to help pay down the bond debt that the City spent to build this. Why would I say that,? You know we are not interested in paying off any debts. We are just interested in going into deeper debt. What a joke. This Councilman is against going further in debt and we don’t need to be making loan payments on projects but keep the faith and we will talk to you next week.
