Herman's "Point of View"

Excerpt from Herman Robinson's Point of View in the Palm Beach Post that was published recently.
[...] "there is also a tradition of fear and loathing in the Lake Worth voting public that somehow bonds are an “open checkbook” for those running the show. Past activity does not bear this out, and the current bonding plan on the Aug. 26 ballot is as basic and non-frivolous as it gets: keep our water pure, dispose of sewage in a sanitary manner and keep our streets safe. The parameters of the bonding issue address what the money can be used for; there are legal requirements that address oversight and quality control (not done by city personnel) and the need for the repairs is immediate.
Vote 'yes' on the bonding issue. If we don’t believe in our city no one else will, either.' "
