The Ken Jacobs mayoral regime is under pressure from a citizenry disgusted with his obstinate efforts to pursue a program looking more like a feudal lordship than responsible governance of a modern city.
His Town Hall News, purportedly providing valuable news about city affairs, really functions simply as his soapbox for self aggrandizement, weak justification, and attacks on anyone and everyone who dares disagree with him. My recent letter to the editor, published in the Whitman County Gazette, offers some gentle criticism of the mayor but mainly recommends the benefits of a different direction, the path of increasing the tax base through responsible growth.
