Stack the deck – win the hand!

I went to the Park Ridge Park Board meeting last night.  As I said on the 4th, Rick Biagi intended to stack the deck with his supporters and that’s exactly what he did.

The dog & pony show went off without a hitch; and it appears he and the Board are well on their way toward indebting Park Ridge citizens with an additional $7.1 million this year plus another 3.5 +/- million in the years to come.

I stayed for most of the meeting, and during that time, 25 citizens expressed their opinions, with 21 in favor of the planned pool project.  Of course, the Board was unanimous in their support of the plan.

So, it appears the  Board and Mr. Biagi in particular, deserve kudos for their effort.

Now, that leaves December 13th for those wishing to express their disapproval, and even then, I think the new “mini-waterpark” is a done deal.

Of course, it’s just my opinion!
