Why Does the Town Fountain Leak? Maudasaurus Knows Comments (3)
Simple questions: why does the one and only Town fountain leak all over the sidewalk 24/7? Who designed this and how much were they paid? Is a fix coming Maud? What will the fix cost and who pays?
Let's go out on a limb with some answers. The people who run Vienna government are not achievers. They have no experience in the execution of construction/design projects. Can you imagine any builder who would survive by executing such shoddy work? The Town Green is the work of bureaucrats spending tax dollars willy nilly with no oversight. Not only is it pathetic, it is sad.

No Storm Water Management Comments (3)
While Vienna will have its lovely new Town Green, storm water management is a disaster in Vienna. Below are four pictures from today for one house in Vienna, but there were probably hundreds more flooded. Nice job Maud! Put your HUD money to parks while Vienna floods.

Can You Spell "Favorites"? Water & Politics Comments (0)
The Lillis family had a storm water management report prepared especially for them after their neighbor built a new house. George Lovelace and Maud Robinson made sure that the Town spent $10,000+ on this report under the guise that they were protecting themselves from a Lillis lawsuit. That's baloney. This very expensive report was prepared as a "political get back" against this homeowner who happened to be Lillis' neighbor. Why do this? It was a nasty tactic employed by George Lovelace, Maud Robinson and Laurie Cole after losing a big 4-3 vote. These three losing Council members wanted to mete out punitive financial sanctions against Lillis' neighbor in the form of a "delay". Nice people eh? What does the report say? Read it here (PDF). When was the last time the Town of Vienna commissioned an engineering firm such as Whitman, Requardt and Associates to study your property? When you have the "power" we guess you can spend taxpayers' dollars any ole way you want.
