Something really stinks at the "rats nest" commonly know as the Civic Center.Our first responders have a tough job and are extremely important to our precious community.When I read an article like this I am concerned,not only about the moral issue but the fact that this report is not being released to the public.The administration at our Civic Center seem to forget that we pay their salaries and in fact paid for the survey that produced these results.They should have no choice as to whether to release the results to the public or not and council should immediately call for a vote to release the results.We expect council to keep an eye on the nonsense that goes on far too frequently down at the Esplanade And Council........we hired you,pay you and can fire you.
