Tue Jul 13, 2010 10:00 am  00SL2 F L I N T O I D What I want to know is whether the contracts provide for removing the clipping and trimmings to Walling's compost pile!! If not, complain to city council about approving faulty contracts.

Walling lent the County Land bank some of the city mowers and tractors. Thu Jul 15, 2010 7:41 am  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D A while back, I saw a report on a theft from the Oak Business Center. The items taken were not identified. Could this have been some of the mowers? _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.
