GoD- It is probably a little cosmetic, but who cares? They are visitors spending money in our city, the more the merrier.

ANON- I wonder if Bob is on steroids sometimes, especially with that temper he has.

I wish Bob Litz would hit the gym more often. He looks so flabby. Maybe some supplements would help.

Is this whole thing a cosmetic issue, or is this city under threat from people living in RVs?

It’s time to organize campground residents into a court class. Two years ago there were no lawyers who would go up against the city. Now, there are a dozen or more and they’re hungry. Keeping the city in court would result in a settlement where present campers can stay. During years of delayed litigation, add new campers who will also be a part of the settlement. The city attorney’s office is already busy. Perhaps a couple million should be allocated to cover present and predicted legal expenses. The common sense approach would be to fall back from citizen torture games and utilize limited resources for practical and necessary functions. Common sense is not a personality trait for the mayor or the council.

The other irony is that what they were debating (Kermit proposing an emergency amendment for campground users) got walked into the council meeting later that night. So what were they all up in arms about?

I think Quen Be De drinks before and during the meetings. She really has no idea what she is talking about. During the Town hall meeting she was sitting across the aisle from me with her husband Dave (who is running for governor) and a guy I know whispers to me “Imagine her as first lady of SD.” I busted up laughing. and said, “I try not to.”

During the informational when she said the council needs to work together for another 7 1/2 months, I thought to myself, “And I am counting each day on a calendar.”

l3wis I don’t know how you can stand to watch, it is so frustrating. The only way to watch city council meetings is to drink.
