Last week the JT reported that village officials in Mount Pleasant will consider counting absentee ballots a different way next election cycle. They may not have to, though. Wisconsin's top elections official says the state should consider switching from absentee voting to early voting practiced in other states. Early balloting requires less paperwork and clerks could also count the early votes before Election Day according to officials. Do you think this is a good idea? Why or why not?

I'm interested to hear your thought about how the Village had things set up and how smooth things went Tuesday.. I got there about 5:30 and I couldn't believe the parking lot on the south side of the village hall was pretty busy, however I did find a spot. I was able to walk right in and give my name and grabbed my ballot, and voted. I was in and out in about 5 minutes. 5 minutes man for a presidential election!! Nicely done Sturtevant!

as i was walking around the boys in the subdivision around trick or treating i was approached by a freind of mine in majestic hills. he told me that a week or two ago that sturtevant is considering a wheel tax to make up some of the money lost due to OUR not having any money. i couldnt believe my ears. it was 5 or so dollars per tire per year he said. my blood started to boil and i got pissed. what in the hell is going on here? so YOU as the village board mad some bad investments and the rest of us got to pick up the bill? you have got to be kidding me. milwaukee scams this additional money for their budget deficet, not a village of 6000 or so. furthermore, you need to stop listening to your village adminstrator cause trust me, they didnt want him in racine and now he's making sturtevant into the money pit it was when milkie left. when is this community going to wake up and realize that all this affects US. to sit and be mindless and not realize that these descions are not being made to benefit the village but to cover mistakes is what is happening. the good old boys club needs to come to an end and all the coniving people that are supposedly looking out for sturtevants best interest are not. between two cops that dont do there jobs yet are untouchable because of who they know and we all know who they are, to the descions being made by the unqualified as to our road construction projects, to being mislead thru the whole process and purjury in the racine courts, this has got to stop and stop now. you shouldnt have used the tid money on building that park behind the prison who is it benefiting? the prisoners? the board chose to build houses in the softest market ever recorded, and yet, you want me to give you my hard earned money? you as the village board what the hell are you doing? your out of money, your out of excuses, and now by the good grace of god you are out of time

Whats happening with the storm lines around Cynthia Ln. If we get a good hard rain it backs up in the sanitary lines. I thought Mt. Pleasant was going to check this out? I've had a Mt. Pleasant Engineer twice with No call back at all.
Mount Pleasant Budget Meeting!!!!!!!
Posted by: Lefty at 10:46AM CST on October 28, 2008
The village of Mount Pleasant will be holding a budget hearing meeting on November 10th at 7:00 in the village hall. If you have any interest at all on the spending in the village, attend. To preview the budget you can see it at the village web site mtpleasantwi.gov, in the red box, left center. The different departments of the village are generally right on for money needed, but the unknown cost to be enflicted next year could be costly to all of us. With everything financial going downward this board might relate the millions they would borrow to really raise your taxes in the future. Be there, ask questions, inquire about future cost not in this budget, like police, fire department, new roads,loans to builders,developers, and debt. Future money for needed items now not in the budget today, buy borrowed tomorrow, why? No tax raise this year is nice to say, but nail us later. Have them explain there reasons to Borrow.
