Providence Street Playground

I'm going to get right to the point here on the Providence Street Playground.

Why is it that that the men working on the playground all were from Ohio? Were there not any unemployed Worcester contractors looking for work at the time?

And, who is going to maintain the playground? The city?

How long before it falls into disrepair like all of the city pools did?

I'd love to see an update on this in a year or so.

You're Going To Use The Money For What?

SOLD for $17 million.

Mr. Manager,

Now that the Worcester Airport sale has finally gone through, how about taking some of that money and instead of wasting it on repairs to parks the city will not maintain. Put it where it will be most beneficial.

First of all, take the $2M proposed tax levy off of the tables.

Do you really think that the people of Worcester can afford to pay more taxes at a time when most are just barely getting by.

And how about all the city pools just waiting for an accident to happen. Why not use some of that money to level the buildings and fill in the pools. Make use of that land instead of just letting it go to waste.

Use your heads on this one. Put that money where it will actually help us out.

What do ya say to that? Mr. Manager.

Oh, and by the way. The city should have plenty of money now to get that ice rink put together that's been in the works for the last two years.

See you on the ice.

Great article about immigration.

Maybe the four horsemen on Worcester's City Council (Mayor Joe O’Brien, councilors Michael Germain, Frederick Rushton and Joffrey Smith) should read this. They may learn alot from it.
