CATHY PALLA SPEAKS OUT ON DAIRIES
Location, Location,Location!
Highway 46 Must be Fixed
Highway 46 is a death trap and anyone who drives it knows that. It must be fixed and as quickly as possible. Local funding that will speed the process should be found. And leadership must be shown on this important issue. The incumbent has been MIA - missing in action - on this important issue.
Toxics, Radioactive Waste, Biosolids, Human Sludge - These Don't Belong in our County.
