Comments on: County Board Faces Full Year-End Agenda http://annarborchronicle.com/2009/11/29/county-board-faces-full-year-end-agenda/ it's like being there Tue, 14 Feb 2012 03:55:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Brian http://annarborchronicle.com/2009/11/29/county-board-faces-full-year-end-agenda/comment-page-1/#comment-33917 Brian Tue, 01 Dec 2009 02:40:53 +0000 http://annarborchronicle.com/?p=33029#comment-33917 So, it sounds like Ypsilanti Township has found a nice way to benefit from the failed police millage. Perhaps they were actually cheering on election night. It looks like the county may simply redirect other deputies to cover the 10 they no longer want to pay for (at the expense of every other county resident's coverage). What a great deal for Ypsilanti Township. What a horrible deal for everyone else. Does any other single unit of government in this county get the perks this township does, or are they alone in this distinction? I also find it hard to believe that an area of 50,000+ residents doesn't have its own police force. Then again, why should they bother paying for all of it? No need to, and they must know that.

There are other buildings including both ellsworth sites and other buildings that could use new lighting.
