So back to old idea’s again. They couldn’t get the 20 year or the 10 year L.O.S.T. TAX, and now they want to use this as one of the ways to bring money to the city and county. Okay, BUT, What is there to anchor these small idea’s? Just like a mall has Sears, J.C.Penny [...]

The whole city should be in on this, and yet again the POWERS THAT BE have dropped the ball on a NEW 1 time major revenue income for the city and the village,New Bo area, and downtown and many others. You MUST know some thing about your job, and stop using the public for their [...]

and yet, the people of Cedar Rapids continue to wait.

November 2013 is coming folks the count down has begun

how about a lot right behind them with 5 vendors having a BBQ face off and the WINNER GETS TO COME THE NEXT YEAR FREE OF CHARGE to go up aginst the big boys,Here’s an idea….why not put all the council in a dunk tank at $5.00 a ball/kids 3 for $5 and ALL the [...]

The truth NEVER changes no matter how you tell it, The clock is ticking on this council and thier evil ways.

might have been a better resopnce from RON CORBETT, IF IT WAS HIS IDEA TO START WITH, but it wasn’t his idea so therefore he don’t know what else to say, kinda like the 3 leg stool, by brothers keeper ect. Looks like were about ready for another great quote from him pretty soon ain’t [...]

WHY FALL IN LOVE? we already live here. Who is he talking to? Don’t they live here and work here too? Where is he from? PA? Really? Look we got rid of a Chief of police that didn’y fit, we got rid of a city Mgr because he was selling *****, so we know when [...]

NO THEY DIDN’T, nor did they keep thier word for the home biz’s that sliped thru the cracks due to “one size fits all”mentality. Then refused to speak with the ones who did try to explain the problems, may be one of the reasons for over payments but if you were shorted , oh well, [...]

WHY were there so many cars going by when they SHOULD have been working at a JOB? The fact that the center has run it’s time and needed to be EXPANDED to hold the shows other citys do has nothing to do with being “BLACK LISTED” by the entertainment industry, or does it? It seems [...]

so how much of the money ( 100.000.00) has been paid back from the lady who stole it? Was thereFEMA money with the SS? where did it go? why is it that information on our money being paid into this crap can’t be posted for all to see AND the plans they would like to [...]

SO what is the back up plan after 3 to 5 yrs when they see they were sold a bill of goods that didn’t show proffit? Didn’t we have one of these on the west side off of wiley blvd sw? BY THE WAY HOW IS THE PROMOTION OF OATMEAL BOX’S WORKING FOR YA, THAT [...]

I WOULD GUESS THE FACT THAT CEDAR RAPIDS HAS BEEN “BLACK LISTED” AND THEY WILL CHARGE “MORE” TO BE HERE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT HUH? The fact is that you have to have something people WANT to go and enjoy, to get them there. A major development would have better suited the city. [...]

WANT—VS—NEED—VS—REALITY

WHY? Every city has parking problems. To think that IF this is a parking lot, FOR HOW LONG? It has shown to be true that once a parking lot is down it stays that way for years. Why not come up with a solution to the problem? Build them higher, walk farther, (we do have [...]

Now if we can get the Chief of the Cedar Rapids police Department to get “INVESTIGATIONS” done outside of his “BROTHERS IN BLUE” maybe, just maybe, can we move forward in trusting them and the city Council again. Until then people will continue to use face book and other sources to EXPOSE the TRUTH. Just [...]

Well, I would point out that if this MAYOR, Ron Corbett, can’t keep his word on a simple “SIGNED DOLLAR” from the looser of the May 3rd Vote, then how can he be trusted with the BIGGER issues? REALLY? ALL a person has is thier word, and because HE really thought that $500,000 plus, and [...]

the reality of it is that this rapist will be out after treatment in Mt.Pleasent,Ia whereas I plea with our so called leaders to CHANGE IT JUST A BIT< RE: leave the rapist locked up till the child turns 21 years of age WHICH IS the MAX age for a child to recive MAX benifits [...]

like we don’t know what happened? Are they gonna tell how the city OVER PAID for property’s? What about the problems and the fact that wheather you OWN a home/house or if you RENT a house/home is the differance on how much help you get by 60% $10,000 if you owned the home and only [...]

I can see that the under ground parking is so much important than re-building homes in the torn-up area’s, like the 180 homes going to be built off of Ellis (last wk’s council meeting) REALLY? Building NEW homes that are not IN FILL to replace the one’s torn down EALL? What about the BIG nice [...]

GOOD, give him as much time as you can. Him and his co-hoots have caused distruction in our city for years, distroyed lives, hurt kids by taking the mom’s and dad’s away with thier drugs. GOOD BYE MR DRUG DEALER! tell your friends they are NEXT if they come to CR and try dealing your [...]
