Unfortunately PJS article didn't explore individual board members pushing a bad deal and then taking no ownership for the failure. Once again a clear example of media bias with no repercussions.

The cash srapped PPD claimed "not enough useage". The head of the Peoria Tennis Association said the reason for the drop in useage was BECAUSE THE COURTS WEREN'T PLAYABLE. Very true. The PPD along with Peoria Piublic Schools is slowly killing tennis in Peoria This is true. I played these courts when the dust flew, balls landed in a puff of dried up clay causing players to move to Bradley University and the hard courts at Bradley Park.<br /><br />To my knowledge neither Peoria High nor Manual supported a team this spring nor this fall. In the past, it was not unusual for these schools to field a full team and usually lost by totally lopsided scores causing visiting teams to play against themselves. While the coaches WHO NEVER PLAYED TENNIS drew 11% of their salary for doing next to nothing.<br /><br />While the Park Foundation has been helping to make up deficits, this help still did not allow the park to keep up all tennis courts (the courts at lower Glen Oak Park were also destroyed) nor did finances allow the park to build the sports complex out North, strongly proposed in 2002 nor stop erosion; the last budget calling for $250,000 for 9,000 acres.<br /><br />Unpaid board members are NEVER able to meet Commmunity needs. Look at Peoria Public Schools as another prime example.Merle Widmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788275198834985986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671777.post-35604855490215503452018-08-15T17:57:19.572-05:002018-08-15T17:57:19.572-05:00Dirty Ex-Stockbroker Jim Stowell forwarded the art...Dirty Ex-Stockbroker Jim Stowell forwarded the article to blogger (now deceased) Bill Dennis who did Jim's dirty work.Merle Widmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788275198834985986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671777.post-21918905880976737182018-07-27T10:56:43.708-05:002018-07-27T10:56:43.708-05:00Merle,

Ever since Craig's list cancelled their rants and raves section of the site, I have felt like there is no way to express or convey the horrid feeling of impotence I feel at today's idiocy. The city cannot do anything properly and to let our rapidly detroiting city "Flint" our water would be.... stupid?

Why don't wealthy investors promoting this buyout like Filege, Oberhelman and Kress, buy the company and take at least $10 million a year in profits?<br /><br />While these folks have offered the City $400,000 for a due diligence study, the City would need to invest at least $600,000 more to complete the study. But the City is going to lose MORE than $7,000,000 on the bad Pere investment. Our infrastructure is 3rd world and will need money for repairs that it dosen't have. If the City can't handle basicc serrvices, how can this Council run a water company??? Merle Widmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788275198834985986noreply@blogger.com
