Ladies and Gentlemen
Monday’s election set Midland upon a new course. While appreciative of the good work of Jim Downer, the people recognized that to resolve some of our key issues, such as taxes and jobs, we are going to have to change the way that we do things.
In keeping with that theme, I am changing the way that I will communicate with you. News from the Town has been useful in letting you know about upcoming events for the Town and Council, but it provides little on the background or policy implications. So which is better? - to suspend News from the Town and switch to a website; or leave news from the Town as it is and put more policy related comment out through other means. Let me know what should be done with News from the Town over the next four years.
