Who Takes Responsibility for the Town Green?
From a reader:
The Town News Letter with candidate statements has arrived. It's time for new people, Vienna. Lovelace has nothing to add (say) and Robinson runs on history... "Vote for me, Maud, because I control it all and it will all fall down if you don't". This voter resents being asked to grant Lovelace another "special privilege just because", and I resent Maud's scare tactics and false starts on issues that have languished far too long. It is time for Lovelace and Robinson to retire. Why wait for them to expire in office... Town government is not a retirement plan at tax payer expense. Vote, Vienna! Send Maud and George home for a couple years and bring in some new energy... all of Town staff will be renewed with a fresh start.Noticeably missing from the candidate statements is any mention of our new glorious Town Green. Now isn't that interesting! An $8m and counting centerpiece capital improvement? project and nobody responsible for it wants to take credit or talk about it! I'd say they are running scared. It's vote for me May 1 and back to my garden club government May 12 at my Town Green dedication. Wake up, Vienna, and go vote!
Vienna Town election will be held on Tuesday, May 1, 2007, 6:00am to 7:00pm at the Vienna Community Center.

I see that no one is stepping forward to take responsibility for the Town Green, so I guess I will. After all, the Town Green is named after me, it will have a plaque mounted in my honor, and I will be there for the opening ceremony on May 12... wearing green, of course! I cordially invite all of you to come out and join in the celebration... and do wear lots of green to show your support for our Town Green!

WEAR GREEN? Sure thing - since they've already taken my GREEN DOLLARS, they might as well have the GREEN SHIRT off my back, too.
