Why is it? A man wakes up after sleeping on an advertised mattress, brushes his teeth with advertised toothpaste, shaves with advertised razor, puts on advertised clothes, drinks advertised coffee and eats advertised cereal, drives to work in an advertised car... and then refuses to advertise... believing that it doesn’t pay. Later... if his business is poor, he advertises it for sale. Why is it?

PLUS: • Printed material was available at City Hall • City Commissioners publicized their personal contact information, offering to meet publicly or personally • City Staff is always available to provide information • Facts and scheduled meeting times were publicized weekly in the Shoppers Guide • Fewer than 12 residents attended a public informational meeting • Zero residents called or contacted Commissioners • As a resident of Otsego, you enjoy the safety provided by 24/7 police and fire protection. Yet you will not support them financially? • If you proclaim to love and support this community, yet didn’t take the time to vote on Tuesday, shame on you! ~ Paid for by Kathy Misner, Commissioner City of Otsego
