Village and DNR

Click here

Village said they had an "oral" agreement from County on bike trail crossing at 122nd Street too. As we say at work, "no documented evidence, then it didn't happen".

I suppose KNews got it all wrong again, just when cooperation between the two was starting to look better:

Pollocoff initially told the Kenosha News the village already had received the grant. However, Tom Blotz of the DNR said the department hasn’t yet approved the grant pending close of the public comment period, which ends at 4:30 p.m. Feb. 26.

Tom Blotz of the DNR was the one who was involved in Bike Trail Crossing issue.

No big deal but thought it was interesting to see that the same tactics are still being used.

New Zion Baseball Team

Hopefully it won't be the Zion Skunks. Maybe this will finally get the smelly dump to get rid of their awful smell. Wonder how Village can profit from this? I suppose Village couldn't compete land-cost-wise as the builders probably got the land for a "Trumpet" song.

How about Border Collie's?

About a dozen lawmakers say they'll take the raise and give it to charity.

Let us use our money as we see fit.
