Show (funny bone y a great process By MARY COONS It's over again, and Pleasant Grove has new blood on the city council. I think it's a great process, and I appreciate all of those who ran, and were willing to commit to the amount of time away from business and families it is going to take. As you can ask anyone in city government, it takes a lot of caring and love for a , community for someone to run for such a difficult calling. We, none of us, realize the - hours and hours of work those who have served this community have put in. In my experience in going to city council and covering it for the newspapers, most of those in the community only go to council when they have something to complain about. I know this is a source of frustration for the mayor and the council, and I wish someone would J call them and tell them how much they appreciate their dedication to the community of Pleasant Grove. Sorry if this sounds preach-y, but I think I voice this opinion for all of .those who attend the council meetings week in and week out. We know that a little praise for those in office wouldn't hurt once in a while. I mean, when you're elected, you don't suddenly not become a human being. Everybody needs a little pat on the back. Even elected officials. Good Luck, Guys. |
