The town center project isn't under the control of past or current city council. It has been a project by private developers in conjunction (feedback) of council.

Issa,
The photo page should have the AmCan Sign we see on the highway. It photographs well.

Possible to have a Non-profit tab for discussions on grants, scholarships, events etc..specifically for city's non profits?

Good job so far. look forward to the new revamped site!

I went to WM three times since it opened. I still prefer Safeway for Gas/Groceries-plus it's more convenient to my home. I'm willing to pay more for that convenience. It's nice to have a local store to buy toiletries, housewares etc. and in the spring gardening stuff. Disapointed with all the Xmas I...

We've been trying to find a way to promote the skate park and provide a way to provide a venue for teens. I'll keep your nephew in mind-maybe we can integrate his talents into the AmCan Cares/Youth Day event we are still working on.

The Skate park is on city property. Despite the "release of liability" and "use at your own risk".. A kid on a bike without a helmet injured himself at the skate park.His parents sued the city. Need I say more? It's a Skate Park. There are Bike trails to be used throughout the ci...

From what I understand a line of credit is similiar to our credit card limit..based on the city's credit worthiness-they have been extended a line of credit of $12M.

There's going to be quite a bit of city business this year. Many of the current projects are being completed and the next series are on the priority list.

I wish more people would get involved. One person can make a difference. See the article in Times Herald re: Barry Christian and OpenSpace?

The most important and relevant part of my post was:

Maybe some of the people posting here who seem to have all the answers will step up and do some work for the city.

MCB- (once again) WRONG! NO ONE on PCS Telecommutes.
