    "My neighborhood use to be nice ; my street use to be a nice farm road, now with all the over building there are to many cars and my street is now a raceway, the speed limit is 20 mph and cars come down doing 50 , mystery is a pass threw street and the out siders throw trash on the side walks, there are to many dogs and the dog walkers and most dog walker don’t pick up the dog mess, people steel for the neighborhood. Sadly to say the council person does nothing , but promised he would do something, this is a veteran city and there are veterans and wounded veterans on my street and the city does not recognize the veterans, but if a fire fighter gets hurt or killed the fire department has all kinds of fund raiser to give the funds to the family but a vet that got blown up get nothing, "
