Questions to consider

RE: Answer within

We all know by now how Mr. Benson, Mayor Criner, the Council members, the Chamber of Commerce, the good folks at News and Eagle, Mr. Dillingham and Mr. Richie feel about taking other people’s properties to 4-lane Randolph. But that’s not important now, voting day is almost here. The question then becomes do you see a widened Randolph for 22 million dollars, or would you rather see more money spent on fixing the street in front of your house. The street in front of my house has busted concrete, uneven concrete and large holes, but I’m sure it has just slipped the city’s mind for six years. I am quite sure they will be happy to take care of it in 2042 when everything else is done. One other question you may want to ask yourself. Would you, Mr. Benson, Mayor Criner, the Council Members, the Chamber Members, the good folks at the News and Eagle, Mr. Dillingham and Mr. Richie be as willing to widen Randolph IF and capitalized if because it is a big if. IF the folks listed and you the voter would be as willing to 4-lane Randolph if it was your yard you were losing, IF it was your children who would have to play closer to fast moving traffic, IF it was you who had increased road noise, IF it was you who suffered property value loss. Be honest folks would you vote yes or no? It’s your choice! Please VOTE!
