Ed, if Hamilton really is in financial distress the mayor is not giving that impression with his “drunken-sailor” spending and waste. First, three weeks after the Christmas season, town hall still has candles glowing in all its windows well into the night, wasting electricity. Second, the mayor buys a new car even though his old one had under 25,000 miles. And the current topper, spending close to $100,000 for a redesign of a Web site so it can help track when a pothole is filled. The mayor spends and we pay and pay and pay. Please tell him (and his rubber-stamp council) to stop the wasteful spending and silliness. A calendar and a pencil can track how long it takes to fill potholes.

Does everyone in the township feel this way? Let’s hear from someone out there who appreciates the open and immediate access to pothole-filling data.—Ed. No
