LHA, Bullock, Madigan, CCF and Butler all colluded to concoct a contract structure in the hopes of nullifying the referendum that they all knew was sure to be mounted by SLH--and it was mounted.
Meanwhile council candidates were telling people Issue 61 was not needed because citizens could always do a referendum.

Council, no longer cares about citizens. I have stated it for awhile, since FitzGerald Days. Residents are a pain in the ass, except election time where they lie to us.

Lakewood, and Lakewood Politics are becoming pretty infamous in the county.

Another Mayor and Council making us the laughing stock of the county.
