There is no need to name the authors (and I use that term lightly) on this website that are using this link for personal reasons.
I don't know WHO you are, WHAT point you are trying to get across, or WHY you are using this link to be so vendettive and obnoxious.
Be a REAL PERSON and speak to these people you have anger and resentment for personally. We are all getting tired of reading your trash talking posts!

I agree
with you.. I would also like to know when this board switched over to a ''lonely hearts club'' message board.
Maybe that is why many long time posters are staying away. Some of them I say GOOD RIDDANCE to but I miss a few of them. Where are you Rich, Richard, Northender???? Come back soon....

IM SORRY
Im sorry for aggravating everyone on here in the short time ive been here. IM JOKING. I am sick of the dating service posts already and im sick of the people bashing. I wish this site was used for discussions on how to do good things in the community. Like community services (volunteering), What to do with old buildings, What types of businesses we would like to see in the city, etc ..... I dont think this should be someones soap box to parade around and act like a community leader. But of course most people dont want to be that is why they do not post with their own names.

I agree
Dan,
I agree with your posting that this should be used to discuss real issues that can effect this community.
We have an election of Mayor and Council coming up and there needs to be individuals to run for the seats. We need to have a choice on who represents us and voting in the same faces will cause us to have another four years of this style of government.
The Revised Revision of the 1923 Charter is coming up again for approval. No it did not go away with the defeat of the first attempt.
The city has a study for manpower going on right now. They are studying common jobs and plan to combine jobs in the future. This city government says this is a way to reduce costs however it will also reduce people, create long lines for city services and other inconvientances for the citizens. I really do'nt see how they can combine services for Municipal Services and City Central. In a council meeting an issue of increases for employees of Municipal Services and the ZERO increase for Central City employes was brought up and a councilman stated 'By charter we have no say in what DMS does pertaining to pay or increases, except for approval of the General Managers salary'. So then how can forces be combined if the DMC Commission controls their and the Council controls City Central.
There are other issues - Who sits on the DDA? Who directs the DDA? Does the DDA follow the Michigan Open Meeting Act? Is RTA the official spokes person of the DDA? and Why is the DDA buying/leasing vacant buildings - did we all forget the Metropolitan Furnature Store and how the DDA handled that situation?
Yes there are more important issues we as citizens need to address that Love Lines, Personal Attacks, and Law Suits.
One last item - Partial Funding was given to the city to put in a marina - Oak to Maple from the water front into most of the parking lot. I feel that the leadership needs to forget about this and other consturction and get funding to support a weakened city work force.
