The discussion between Jeff and Joe Campbell has to do with things that have
happened in the past and I prefer to look to the future. 
I will remark on a couple of the items. 

First of all, let me state that Jeff is my treasurer, not my advisor. His
opinions are his own and do not always mirror my own. 

I think that the whole issue of the ice rink got way out of hand.  This could
have been handled between the various agencies without the
threat of  shutting down the ice rink and counter law suits.  This is a case
where people should have sat down, agreed they had a problem, identified the
solutions and acted on them.  This finally happened, but there was a 
lot of pain
in the mean time. I very much want to see a full size ice rink in a permanent
location. 

I do think the City has been in error in some of the discussion of development
in Whitman County.  This is especially true when Mayor Chaney stated that
James Toyota should not be allowed to relocate in the corridor because 
that type
of business did not fit her vision. 

Unless the City is ready to spend a substantial amount of money on prevention
and enforcement, it should not establish unenforceable ordinances, such as
banning weapons from City property. 

As Linda said at the League of Women Voters forum, the City has ruled on the
Third Street Bridge. If it comes up again, I will look at the traffic and
engineering data, listen to all concerned comments and make a decision I feel
best benefits the entire City. 

Bruce, as I stated in my previous letter to you, I do not subscribe to 
and very
seldom monitor V2020
because of the demeaning and rude responses by persons hiding
behind an unknown identity. My parents raised me to respect different 
opinions,
no matter how much they differ from my own. At the risk of being
slayed by the written word, I give permission to you to post my comments on
V2020. I only ask that you post all of my commentary. 

Thank You,

Wayne Krauss]
