Well, with the re-development taking so long and people getting paid.........since 1999 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The real shame is the Harrison voters that keep electing these people to office. I only hope someone other than a councilman will step forward and run for mayor. WE CAN'T ELECT A COUNCILMAN TO BE MAYOR. IT WILL ONLY BE MORE OF THE SAME ; 5:30 council meetings, no public input at meetings, millions spent without public approval or input. This next election will show what the voters of Harrison are made of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
