Poll reveals half of Illinois residents want to leave

Poll reveals half of Illinois residents want to leave Of course this is more of the same but it is a shame that no improvements are being made. People that I know that have moved have either moved for a better business climate or better weather and we can do nothing about the later. Government employees want more money and there is less and less to give them without tax increases and the remaining residents can't afford the increased taxation.

Proposition Whether Peru City Council Should Continue to Persue Dissolving Peru Twp

This proposition will be on out ballots tomorow. For so long we have heard people express the desire to eliminate the township with its high salaries and its history of not doing much for what it costs to maintain. Twp road repair and care would be the main concern as assistance is a very small part of their budget.

My question is why is the Mayor of Peru concerned about the township? And who is he consulting with and receving his advice to move on this at this time?

Is it the tax levy that is received by the township and would this now go into the Peru Finances?

How about our City Administrator/Police Chief who is also a Trustee on the Twp. Board?

Initially when this came up in a discussion, I thought this is a no brainer, sure we want to eliminate the township but after much consideration I believe there needs to be an open discussion with the citizens of the city and our city fathers, all of them.
