Check out the blog on the left and sign up on line for a petition to send a message to the Mayor and City Manager to stop the cuts being proposed to Fire Station 18 & 19!
This is unbelievable at the same time they are proposing to spend the increased oil money on an underground tunnel to connect the yet to be built new courthouse and the police department. Let the state pay for it!
There are a number of other serious cuts being proposed in the FY 2012 budget. Send your opinion on this issue. We will follow up with additional on line petitions.
Fire Station 18 was proposed to be closed two years ago and you helped stop that nonsense. Help again!
