When is the city gonna cut the grass by Marion Apt. We have lil children that love to play outside during the day and evenings…..and there has already be a sighting of a snake crawling up the side of the building…..being a concerned mother….I don’t want mine nor any of the lil kids in the area to get bit by one. I know we live next to the river…but I would like to see it before it sees me…
Josh i would like to thank you for the article you did on me being dismissed by the Columbia Police Dept and thank all your readers for there support and to let everyone know i am enrolled in G.E.D. Classes again Thanks for everyone’s support and Prayers
when mr Louge got FIRED after 13 years it shows how bad things are here he does not need a GED to do a job after 13 darn years sound like the good old boys to me if i have to call down their i hope the one who answers knows what to do!
Josh why dont you do a story about how the police ignore the lawbreakers that make u-turns in front of the post office I cant get an answer an they wont do anything about this dangerous practice i have almost been hit several times JUST SAYING
Congrats to Mr Louge for the effort of getting his GED. What I can’t figure out is where our city officals feel a diploma is better than 13 years experience. And I agree with holdon I hope the new dispatcher knows what to do and also hope I don’t have to push 1 for english!!!
