Hi boys and girls!
I haven't been around much. To much going on. I feel a bit guilty sometimes, but I manage to squash that down, and the feeling goes away. I have lots of ideas about things to write about the coal plant. Sadly, most of them require a level of research and writing that I have not been able to attain lately.
I do question how a group of cooperatives, that get together to form another cooperative, become a corporation that is not, apparently, interested in sharing information. The letter GeeGuy received, with it's use of words like compel and comply and I think there was a legally required in there, makes you wonder, why?
Is it really that hard to dig up a couple files, to calm down the people questioning what you are doing?
The City of Great Falls, on its website, directed you to contact SME for financial documents on the joint venture. That's what he did isn't it? And got stuffed, bam, nope not givin' em up. We aren't even going to tell you why, just no, we don't have to.
I noticed at the end of the letter from the City, it states that there are "other records". So they have lot's of stuff, to bad none of it is the important stuff. I see golf was in the news again.
And speaking of the City, I do believe I have been neglecting speaking of sign regulation. Who has noticed a real difference? Anyone? Helloooo......
Are there still sandwich boards on public property outside the BID? yes
Are there still signs advertising a business that has been closed for longer that 90 days? yes
Are there fewer temporary signs? possibly
Are there still signs over the height restriction? yes
Have we seen an economic change? ???
Have we seen a new Sign Inspector, who's salary is paid out of permit fees, hired? ???
Have we seen fewer sign related safety issues? ???
yeah, big difference. It's all the fault of casino's.
I wonder if the lights and camera's work over at the skatepark. Might be about time to revisit that little issue, it's going to be spring soon. I'll have to give that assignment to my squad of young sleuths.
