Brownton wants more ‘teeth’ in blight ordinance

The city of Brownton will be referring its blight ordinance to its attorney for help in giving it more “teeth.”
The Brownton City Council reviewed its existing ordinance, which was adopted in 1982 and last amended in 2011, at its Tuesday, Jan. 5, meeting.
The City Council has become concerned about several blight issues in the city; in particular one on First Avenue South that recently was heard in court.

The Stewart City Council ordered plans and specifications for an estimated $3.76 million in street and utility improvements after a public hearing Monday night.
Residents who spoke at the hearing were mostly concerned about the anticipated cost and impact on property taxes and assessments.
Engineer Andy Kehren said that the final impact won’t be known until bids are received, but residents can get an idea on their potential assessments by providing their frontage footage and other information to the city.

The McLeod County Chronicle covers four city councils on a regular basis, and drops in occasionally on others when there is a hot-button issue.
It is more than obvious that each community in McLeod County is unique, with their own charms, histories and indiosyncracies.

King Obama rules without congress’ approval

To the Editor:
Hear ye, hear ye. King Obama is again trying to change laws in this country without Congress’ approval.
No other president in the history of our country has tried to push more of “his” ideas and ideals on the U.S. citizens by executive order as this clown. It’s true. Look it up if you don’t believe me.

Despite what he says, Obama trying to grab guns

To the Editor:
Since the American people do not support politicians subverting the Constitution, it appears Obama has resorted to attempting to do it through the back door via executive orders.
Even after myriad health care lies such as, “If you like the plan you have, you can keep it,” he expects citizens to believe that his goal isn’t gun grabbing.
Even after praising other countries where rights and weapons were removed and opining that we should emulate such tyranny, he expects citizens to believe that his goal isn’t gun grabbing.

Math on jail proposal just doesn’t make sense

To the Editor:
So far, our county commissioners are not giving up on spending about $7,990,000 to do some remodeling on our present jail.
This was not the intentions of the Tudhope estate of nearly $4 million for “new structure.”
