I offer congratulations to Councilwoman Tara on her recent marriage to Kurt, and on her appointment to the Streator City Council. Our city certainly needs individuals as dedicated to improving Streator as they Tara and Kurt, have demonstrated already. They both "role up their sleeves", get some soil under their fingernails, clean up and move onto the next task. We, as a community, need a thoughtful individual with fresh ideas, working to do what is, in her opinon, best for the City and Citizens of Streator. Oh, and congratulations to the Streator City Council on your excellent choice. . g Here's your basic kiss of death, Tara...an endorsement from greek!

While I wish Tara Iverson the best, the council did not handle this properly.
The council should have listened to the voters and asked the next candidate in line from the last election to replace Brenner.
Right is right and wrong is wrong. And, this time, the council is wrong.

They followed a process that was within the current laws. I would agree that they SHOULD have taken the next highest vote getter in the last election. That being said, I can also say I think they made a good choice in picking her.It seems quite a few people feel that the next highest vote getter should have gotten the position. Maybe now is the time to change the procedure so the next highest vote getter gets the position, in case a similar need arises in the future.

Old, quit your whining and give her a chance. She cannot do any worse, than Ed.

There's an appearance of the good old boy network coming into play.
Iverson has worked with brozak on the tourism board and lansford is in the garden club, etc
I'm not saying it is the good old boy network coming into play I'm saying there is the appearance of it.
That's why the council should have followed how the voters voted. That eliminates any thought of the good old boy network at work.
Again, right is right and wrong is wrong and this time the council is wrong.

Old, quit your whining and give her a chance. She cannot do any worse, than Ed. I guess reading comprehension is not your strong suit. Where did I say in my post that I'm against her? Did you read the first paragraph in my first post when I wished her well? For goodness sake, please don't respond to my posts if you can't determine what the point is.
