Former Urbana officials left town in a pickle

To the Editor,

In response to Mr. and Mrs. Domras about the previous town supervisor and the two councilmen who were voted out by a landslide in the Town of Urbana, I have to state that they obviously didn't do such a great job or they would not have been voted out by such a large majority of the taxpayers. As far as being proud of the job they did, are you kidding? The lakefront was voted down twice, yet they choose to go against the majority and sneak it through anyway. Does anyone realize that was a dumping ground years ago and could be toxic? Who is going to pay for the cleanup if that land is disturbed and the surrounding land and the lake is polluted? The taxpayers, of course, thanks to the previous town supervisor and councilmen. I wonder what Glen Curtiss would think if he knew a dump was named after him. The previous board also had no plan for this socalled gift; they didn't set any money aside for maintenance or development, so there might never be a park there. That's admirable of them. I'm sorry, but I don't admire someone like that. They never listened to us right up to the end. They didn't retire, or step down, they were voted out, there's a difference. As far as stepping down, it appears that one of them hasn't yet. It's time to hit the road "Jack."
