One Good Reason to Vote 'Yes' on Measure Y on Nov. 6

Measure Y will ensure our essential services will always be available.

I would like to offer a simple plea to my fellow Culver City residents. Please be sure to vote "YES" on Measure Y on Nov. 6.

I could offer a long string of reasons why I think you should vote for the extra one half of a penny sales tax but nstead I will provide a single reason.

Many years ago my father Otto Bartal had a stroke. I arrived at his home to find him in bad shape, lying on his kitchen floor. It was a scene that I hope nobody ever has to experience. I phoned for the paramedics and within two minutes they were on the scene and 100 percent prepared.

Measure Y will ensure that if you or your family ever need help from our paramedics, police or fire department, they will be there. That’s why I’m urging all Culver City citizens to vote YES on Measure Y.

Sincerely,

Roberta Sergant

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

Maybe more to the point, where does the methane (way more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas)Read More release go from the fracking process, where do the "secret"and other cancer causing chemicals go, and who pays for clean-up costs, increased healthcare costs of residents nearby, possible increased earthquake damage, etc. and where does this oil go (we can't use it--too dirty--so probably China)?

As I understand it, fracking wells "dry up" fairly quickly, which is why pressure to keepRead More drilling so urgent. Where do the jobs go after a year or so? Just a thought....
