One More Thing…
Oops! I completely forgot to talk about one issue that’s on the ballot today. There’s a $7.9 million bond issue for storm sewers and such. These bond issues pop up every couple years, and typically they pass relatively easily. That’s good. They feature critical infrastructure concerns that, while not sexy enough to deserve their own commercials and yard signs, are extremely important to our city. I strongly encourage you to vote FOR this year’s bond issue.

Agreed! I voted FOR the bond issue.
Lincoln has paid for storm sewer improvements with bond issues for 30 years. It is worth my money to have storm sewers capable of handling our rainfall. (I have also made improvements to my property, to limit how much storm water runs off and into the storm sewers. But that’s a topic for another day.)
These improvements also equate to more work (jobs) for civil engineers and construction contractors.
