Written on UPDATED: Magel continues to lead in Marco campaign contributions :

It's clear that Mr. Magel is backed by the same corporate corruption that has fueled the fires of all the wasteful spending by the Marco Island city government over the last 6 years. It's a shame that we can't have a city that represents the citizens that live here, instead of a city that is totally controlled by the back room special interest groups.
My humans took me to the dog park today and what a treat! It's a shame that the MI city government won't even spring for a decent dog park, making the residents pay the tab. We know where their priorities lie!

Written on Marco City Council directs rebid of "confusing" sewer project:

Marco city government reeks with corruption and mis-appropriation of public funding. Too bad we do not have some oversight committee, kinda what council should be doing. Everyone with a brain knows that Tonka Joel is running the island. Someone should look at all the kickbacks that employees are getting.

Written on Don Farmer: Sounds like sewer system is coming to town:

I love it when right wing journalists extoll the virtues of the city and it's many misdeeds. Keep it up, we need less residents and more tourists to keep those dollars coming in to pay the salaries of the ever-expanding city bureaucracy. Oh, and lets take over the electric company so the city can raise rates at will and drive the middle class people away.

Written on Sewer construction begins in Sheffield and Lamplighter districts on Marco:

The prices keep going up and the outlaws in city hall continue rob the people. This is what the majority want so they must have lots more money than we do. I love Harrison's statement about simply “settle up with the city in 20 years.” Yea, sure Bill.

Written on Letter to the editor: Nothing to fear but fear itself?:

Boy, there is enough "hate" here to cover 10 islands. I thought we were going to have a period of healing after the recent elections, but the hate mongers just can't keep quiet. Let's get on with the business of making Marco Island a better place to live. With the decrease in tourism, we may have to depend more than ever on the residents.

Written on Letter to the editor: Our dogs need a place to run:

We indeed need a park where our humans can let us play and socialize. Why is Marco Island so narrow minded? Why does the city waste hundreds of thousands of dollars on unnecessary street lights when our parks get second, or even third fiddle? Lets do something for our four legged friends and establish a dog park.

Written on In Focus: MPO hosts discussions on future of Jolley Bridge:

I hope the city of Marco Island is not spending taxpayers' dollars for this consultant.

Written on Letter to the editor: Dog park on Marco:

Bark Parks are popular off Marco Island. Why have we been ignored so long by city council. Several of the incoming members of council expressed support for a "bark park" during the campaign process last fall and winter. Let's see if they will truly support the citizens of marco Island and their pets. Let's here it for the dogs!

Written on Letter to the editors: Merrill at the Little Bar Restaurant:

Ms Bator's article indicates she is a fish out of water. What's she doing reporting on a subject she doesn't even understand? Maybe she should be re-assigned to Naples and do society stuff.

Written on Pro-sewer candidates win Marco City Council election:

Too Bad Boss Moss jumped ship so early. We really could have used his expertise to heal the island. Yea to "Tonka" Joel. Bring on the orange cones! Maybe now we can at least get a "bark park."
