Oh, really?

Alex Kearns Reply » Report Abuse Judge it! #390 2 hrs ago I see that Mr Deloughy has chosen to mention both the St. Marys EarthKeepers and the Citizens Advisory Board on his website. Though I appreciate his statement that he will "work with" both groups, the inclusion of the EarthKeepers on his website should not, in any sense, be taken as an endorsement. We do not endorse any candidate for we are a 501c3 organization and thus are prohibited from doing so. We sincerely hope that ALL candidates would work with the various groups who strive to make St. Marys all that it can be. So, tell me folks: is there anyone out there who does not now know just EXACTLY what this non-voting (but damned well campaigning) Canadian citizen's position is on the airport issue as well as which candidate she backs in each St. Marys race? For the one slow guy over in the corner, here. Let me help you out. Eeyore (AKA ALEX KEARNS) Reply » Report Abuse Judge it! #386 Yesterday Welcome to St. Marys, Piglet, and thank you for your interest. There's a Town Hall meeting at the Eagle's on Oct. 27th (I believe) and you would be able to meet, and listen to, the candidates there. Here are some websites for you to check out: http://www.tomcyphersformayor.com/ http://jolenehaney.blogspot.com/ http://personalpages.tds.net/~royalgull/ http://rilloforcouncil.blogspot.com/ As far as the airport goes, this has been a contentious issue for many years with a few wanting to relocate the St. Marys airport and the majority wanting it to stay where it is. Your best bet is to read: read old newspaper stories at the Times-Union and Tribune-Georgian websites. Read the documents available at City Hall - http://www.ci.st-marys.ga.us/assessments.htm#... The candidates are below (I will be choosing those who are against (in CAPS)the airport relocation to Site 1 for I do not wish to destroy a fragile environment (including the Satilla River), needlessly give away an city asset (an asset that could well contribute to growth and development here) and pander to the very few who would benefit from this misguided scheme. But that's just my opinion and you must form your own. Candidates: Mayor – Eskridge, Deloughy, CYPHERS Post 1 – Bird Post 2 – Hase Post 3- Trader Post 4 – ROGER RILLO, SandyFeller. Keith Post Post 5 – HANEY, LJ Williams, Morrisey, Christopher Bennet Post 6 – Gull Weaver, SIDNEY HOWELL
