Approximately 8 weeks before election time and Mayor Harl's campaign seems to be in full swing. 1. Power house demolition and clean up under way (wonder how much the total cost of that project is) 2. Today the swimming pool house is finally coming down. (wonder how much that will cost when over and done) 3. Horseshoes may be coming to Peru for Tonica residents. 4. A new ice rink and bambini machine have been ordered for the ice skaters who requested it. ($6700) 5. Concerts for a Cause seem to be on the mayor's agenda as proposed Aug. 3rd and June 6th dates are already being put into motion. Heard that on the radio put not presented or talked about at a council meeting. 6. Wonder if the new intersection, a new pickleball location and the Westclox wreck will be discussed next? Other candidates beware the games have begun! on The Most Impressive Thing Happening in Peru

During the last week or so I have received a small number of posts that always have the same theme, nobody reads the blog so don't waste your time reading it and I have come to the conclusion that not only is the blog having some effect on this campaign, there are people who are legitimately worried about it. Let me say to you numbers anonymous
that you will no longer use this blog for your your own personal campaign for your incumbent candidate. You are done. Take out an ad in the paper or radio and pay for it.
It is not my opinions he/she is concerned about but that of you the readers who have become an awakened electorate here in Peru. The people in position don't like hearing what you have to think or say. You have been shut out of most decisions already and they would like it to remain that way. Oligarchy, Oligarchy

All I see is the mayors chances of getting reelected crumbling like all the screwed up , ignored projects under his reign of terror on this town. The electric plant fiasco due to our attorney lying to the council about obtaining a bond to cover the cost is the first contractor skipped town which happened and now is costing us taxpayers to fix it.
The pool he closed because he is scared of swimming, when all the while it could've been fixed and remained open for our communities families to use . An engineer said that it could've been fixed without major overhaul and these problems are fixed all the time. Now we have to pay a contractor to remove it because the person who was going to tear it down for free was turned away because the union supporters wanted to make tax dollars off tearing it down .
Marrying Scotts pipe dream of marrying people in city hall.
Horse hockey Scotts dream of improving horse shoes field for his friends in tonica.
his belittling of council goers and embarrassment for our surrounding communities.
His blatant disregard for the safety of our kids and area teens for pushing away operation prom onto another community because of his personal vendetta against 2 council members.
All the work going on now just represents how much he never did the last 4 years other than chase away businesses, raise taxes, and lie to us taxpayers.
