Two Cents

Monday, December 31, 2007 11:14 AM EST

After reading Dan Schuster's article in Sunday's Citizen it's apparent to me that the parking kiosks are the worst idea to hit Auburn since urban renewal in the 60s and 70s. Paying to park is bad enough but having to lose precious time and return to your car is unacceptable.
I live on upper Seymour Street and on my street there's a house that has a whole bunch of garbage in front of it and which has not been picked up in two or three weeks by the garbage men. How do they get away with not picking it up or have orders to pick it up?

Kudos to Governor Spitzer for going after medical doctors who lie, cheat and steal from the taxpayers. Seems like years ago you could trust, believe and have respect medical doctors but today you can't respect or believe almost anyone.

It looks like Cayuga County's dirty politics wins again in the case of Lt. Langler. Must be the powers that be couldn't handle someone in the department that knows more than them.

If Fred Westphal has authority to fire James Langler then why is John Chick still enjoying an indefinite paid vacation? As a taxpayer I have a right to know why my tax dollars are being given to a convicted felon.

I think it's really sad that you will no longer print Two Cents in the newspaper. It was the only forum where normal, everyday people could get their opinion heard..

What do we have to do to shame the Auburn DPW to repair pot holes again?

" The Citizen's elimination of Two Cents is the papers effort to protect Mike Quill from public criticism and to aid in the hiding of the farce he is going to make of the mayor's office.Tim was never given the slightest coutesy from the press.Why should Mike Quill get any consideration?! He sure doesn't deserve any! "

" WHY IS THE TWO CENTS COLUMN BEING SHUT DOWN? PEOPLE ENJOYED VENTING AND BANTERING BACK AND FORTH. ALSO, IT WASN'T ALL ARGUING AND POLITICS - THERE WERE SOME VERY POSITIVES POSTS AS WELL. I'M DISAPPOINTED, AS I AM SURE MANY OTHERS ARE AS WELL. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL. "
