Wow! Mr. Turner talks about the new dog park at Pioneer Park. What about fixing the one in his own backyard first? The one in his district at Jordan Park is a joke, it's nothing more than chicken wire with no gate. I notice that Mr. Turner talks a lot about what is going on around his district i.e. Gateway, Downtown, 300 W. NW quadrant etc...My Vote is for Michael Clara he seems more focused on within the District.

Likes to listen to the people.

Well he has never replied back to any of my e-mails.

I will make my point on Election Day. You cannot take the time to answer back . . . maybe someone else can!

Out with the old & lets try someone new.

Did Mr. Turner talk about the library that will be built next to his own property?

Sounds Fishy to me.

Not only is the NEW Glendale library going to be built next to Van Turner's business - the City bought the proerty from Van at a pretty good price. Smacks of conflict of intrest - something the media doesn't want to report on.

MR: Turner, you never look for the west side minorities, we never exist for you, and what happen with the train sounding 3 times overnight every night 23:00pm 3:45am and 4:15am.I can hear every night for the last 16 years, you never did anything when the state fair music concert are over the sound limit permit, You don't have more time, let's others do somethings for minorities, we pay taxes too.

I am not the Jay above I believe someone used my name. Anyone that comes in as Mayor or onto the City Council will be the "New kid on the block" and will not be able to accomplish much. As for the Mayor position I don't think Mr. Becker can get much done in 180 days. As for the City Council the "new kid" won't have a clue what's going on.
