THE GREAT CLEANUP

Our second clean up of the West End was a great success. I want to thank the Padgett Co. for the use of their dumpsters, Matt Denison for coordinating everything along with Becky Roy and Pat Salisbury.

This time we had many kind people help us with our efforts. In addition to Becky and David Roy, Jimmy Graham, and Tim Goodwin who helped before, several residents from other parts of New Albany came and helped. They included Lloyd Wimp, Ted Fulmore, Councilman John Gonder, Pat Harrison, John Baird, Tyler Bottoms and Catie Hodges.

Everyone worked very hard, especially the men. I hate to say it but I was really outdone by the guys.

Even with the massive clean up going on downtown, these kind people came down to West 7th

We also appreciate Building Commissioner Ron Hartman and Street Dept. Commissioner Micky Thompson, and Councilman Jack Messer for stopping by to make sure everything was going OK.

Thanks again for the great effort, see you in the fall.
and Market to lend a hand.

Looks like to me England got another photo-op? Typical England style!

Would have been nice if Coffey or Price were there to have their pictures taken. Typical Coffey and Price style!

Yeah! Price and Coffey are always complaining about everything else but they don’t get their hands dirty picking up trash and old tires in their own districts.

At first I thought their objection to city beautification was about money. But helping on a clean up day is free. Either they’re just lazy or they are OK living in a dirty neighborhood.

More than two weeks ago it was asked. "Citizens for Accountability" has not yet answered.

So I ask again:

Is "CFA" okay with a McCartin voting for her brother's gigs?

Is "CFA" okay with not following constitutionally required redistricting?

Why is "CFA" so selective in its "accountability" requests?
