Williams has a Solution

“We ain’t seen nothing yet”, We all know about the financial problems facing Milan and its citizens. We are suffering with seven lawsuits on our plate, lawsuits generated by Ross Williams, Squeaky May and the rest of the Gang of Four. There is no apology no sign of regret by Williams and May for the mess they have perpetrated on the town and the people of Milan.

The town is appealing the Red Wing court case which it has twice lost because of Williams’ arrogance. The town is again appealing the decision after Williams assured the board that he was going to get the money from other sources to pay for the appeal. Now it seems that the town has to come up with the money for the appeal and Williams once again true to form reneged on his promise.

Let us enjoy the warm days of summer while we can, but in a few months we will be back in winter with the snow flying. The problem facing us this year there is there is no money for snow removal in the budget, William and May took care of that. Last year we all knew price of oil was going up and the Highway Department depends on oil for their trucks and road repair, Williams, May &Co. cut the highway budget by 23% and transferred $70.000 from the highway budget to the general fund to pay for their lawsuits. That is OK with Williams he does not have to worry about snow removal because he lives on a county road.

Williams came up with a solution to the highway problem, remove the money from the highway dept’s other budget to pay for the snow removal. The highway dept’s other budget is their payroll; his solution is to lay off highway personnel. We would have snow plows ready to roll but no one to drive them. Williams solves the problem.
