GOOD POINT MADE.....

It has been suggested that we give a woman a chance as supervisor of Riley Township. Considering this is the year of "The Woman" in politics nationwide, I think it's the perfect time to elect Kitty Slamka as our next supervisor. She would be a refreshing change for this township. I don't believe it makes any difference what party our local officials are, it's more important to elect the right person for the job. Like someone who will listen to us, or has the guts to say no when needed. Someone who really cares about Riley and ALL the people in it. Someone who is ready, willing, and able to fill the office of supervisor. The fact that she's a woman, just makes her more qualified. Think about it.So, come on women, let's stick together and vote for Kitty (and you men too). Just look for the name "Kitty Slamka" on election day and make your mark, then walk away knowing you made the right choice.

UPDATES...

The township board considered a consent judgment for the Birkenshaw's adult bookstore and they denied it. They had to increase the budget for legal fees, because of the court case against the Birkenshaw's. They also, updated their investment policy and received a digital camera for the assessor from the county emergency dept.

There's going to be a Euchre Tournament at the Belle River Golf Course on Oct. 18th. Proceeds go to the Riley Township parks dept.

Politics are in full swing, nation wide and locally. Keep reading the blogs and you'll know what I mean.

Emmett is having their first annual festival this weekend, see you there.

The soccer leagues are back playing again. It's great seeing the township park getting used so much. Too bad they don't have more parking over there. Maybe we should ask if that's possible.

The planning commission held a public hearing on the adult bookstore and a large crowd showed up for it. No one was in favor of it being allowed. How do you think they're going to vote on that one? Hopefully they will listen to the people and deny it.

WOW! Tempers are rising...

Okay folks, sorry for the delay in responding, been out of town and busy with the garden. Didn't know so many people were interested in my blog. Well, I had a lot of comments to publish and it seems some people were getting upset because they weren't published immediately. Particularly the anonymous writer who won't give their name and likes to make accusations and spread rumors about others. Actually, it sounded kind of personal to me.
Oh well, guess a lot of people have something to say, or an opinion and in some cases UN-truths.
Yeah, I've been here a long time too, and I know alot of people too, and the rumors you are trying to spread are really low. And no I'm not a coward, you will be heard, but so will I.
