Could They Do Any Less, And Ask For Any More???
Hello again folks.
Please excuse my extended absense as I had some matters to tend to and some meetings to attend in order to make some assessments, some decisions, and some setting of priorities. Life requires a bit of maintenance at times.
In other words, I've been very busy.
So has everyone else who stands behind SOLNA and the changes we advocate for in our community. We have had productive meetings, and a lot of good advise and action plans have resulted from them. Everyone has done their fair share of research and records chasing, to which we owe our greatest thanks.
So, you may be asking, what now?
Up till now, I have been the only Post writer, and the only Administrator for Speak Out Loud NA. However, I have now extended those privledges to a select few others who will be assisting in the day to day operations and occassionally, writing Posts of their own.
Anyone else who wishes to submit a Posting for possible publication on the blog may do so, and the matter of confidentiality will be handled on a case by case scenario.
SOLNA was created to be the Blog where anyone and everyone has an opportunity to Speak Out Loud about what they think about the community, how it's run, and what they think may be right or wrong about it.
We are re-establishing that original mission.
We have created another blog site that will handle ONLY Sewer Utility related documents and contracts, and we will let you know as soon as it contains info.
Meanwhile...
Yes, we're still here.
No, we haven't quit.
What have we been doing? Planning
Why have we been doing it? To achieve our purpose.
What happens next? A little Thunder of our own.
Let us know what you think!
My Question of the Day (may also be submitted for use):
Considering the tussle that's going on over the question of a full-time City Attorney, or another swing at a City Court in order to enforce Codes and Ordinances that are already on the books, has just set us to doing a lot of thinking, and asking a lot of questions.
Just what is it that a Mayor and the Elected Officials of a City are SUPPOSED to be doing?
Let's start with something just that simple. What is the Oath they take?
Don't they swear to uphold the Laws of the City when they take office???
Why do they always come back at us with: "How are you going to pay for it?"
Don't we have some inherent assurred protection when it comes to enforcement as a DUTY by certain officials as written in Indiana State Law?

City Council tonight. 7:30.
Where in Robert's Rules of Order does it state that when something dies on the first reading 9 - 0, the President HAS TO BRING IT BACK for the 2nd and 3rd reading. If it died, it died -- unless you may have a dog in the fight...
This Council needs to, in our humble opinion, stop worrying about development, etc., until they do what the State Board of Accounts instructed them to do, which is to investigate OUR monies. That, we would like to think, should be their first and maybe their only, priority of business, period. If you don't know how much monies you have and you need to do an investigation, according to Indiana State Government -- how can you run this City, legally? This Council has got to get a grip and we as citizens ARE GOING TO HAVE SPEAK OUTLOUD. And please, don't forget, we can speak out and still be proud. Matter of fact, we think we can get loud and be proud.
These are our opinions and FACTS.
Hope to see you there tonight. Time for some answers, no more dancing.
