The Herbie book.

I had heard rumor of a Herb Bergson book for some time. Yesterday the Duluth News Tribune confirmed this in a story they did about Bergson.

The book is two talk about being mayor of two city's Superior and Duluth. It seems that the first number of chapters were easy for Bergson to write but now it has slowed down. He is apparently take his time on the last years of his Duluth Mayor part of the book. This is because of the contrivers he faced along with tough issues that faced the city. Also expected in the book is why he fired Mark Winson the way he did and the Drunk driving charge he received well Duluth Mayor.

I am not sure I would ever by a book about this man however I am sure many people would. Bergson is an interesting person that is for sure.

What is the City Goverment doing on the front page.

I am shocked and disappointed that they Mayor broke his promise. He said he was going to get City Government off of the front page of the paper. Yet that is all that has been on the front page.

I am really not shocked nor disappointed it shows just how inept this guy it to run our city. I was more then willing to give Mr. Ness the benefit of the doubt but he has done nothing but the same. His ideas are not a new vision like he said they would be. They are nothing but the same disguised to try to fool people.

The cuts he is introducing are insane and I will have much more on that later it may take a few days as I am busy but once it is up your will want to read it.

Passing the buck.

Our Mayor Don Ness has changed his proposal for the the sewer system. This one is even more of a joke then his first plan. He is passing the buck now more then he was before. Some thing this Mayor has done sense he took office this year. Most defiantly something he did as a city councilor as well.

The new plan cuts the monthly surcharge in half from near $10.0 a month to $5.57 a month. However now the city is not going to help pay or pay for the sewer line repair at all and that will cost you a small amount of money. Just 7,500 on average, heck everyone has that much laying around right?

Once again this Mayor just passing the buck. The council does have to approve this. More to come soon.

Good Bye Mayor Bergson

Thank God his four year term is over, also thank good we did not re-elect him. It has been a horrible four years for Duluth and this mayor.

Mayor Bergson said he would work with the Duluth City Council and not use his veto pen. Yet he vetoed more then any mayor in recent history. He did any thing but work with the council. He drove a line between the Mayors office and the City Council like no other mayor has ever done.

He failed to bring the home the funding for the DECC twice and he also failed to get the Kroc center. He did mange to get got driving drunk on his way to represent the city in Chicago at a Mayor's conference.

He made many promises and failed many times. IF I was to give him a grade it would be a great big F.
