Questions from Change R City Commissioners

From an e-mail that Change R City Commissioners sent:

From: change.r.city.commissioners.n.ennis@gmail.com
To: Joey Dauben

How many more years before Ennis will build recreational facilities for our children that are comparable to Waxahachie, Midlothian, and Mansfield?

How many more years before Ennis business owners will not need to talk under their breath, and openly offer viable solutions and contributions to the growth of Ennis with out fear of retribution?

How many more years before Ennis will start seeing improvements in the quality of life?

How many more years before the real estate developers can start selling more of their lots?

How many more years is Ennis going to have a lower per capita income than Waxahachie? Is it because the city is more focused on bringing in blue collar jobs?

How many more years before Ennis see more Economic and Retail growth?

How many more years before our City Leaders share the same vision for Ennis as its citizens?

How many more years before Ennis will improve on its population growth rate of 2% per year? For the same period, Waxahachie’s population grew on a average of 22% per year, Texas 13% and the US 7%. “…noting that this growth has been both manageable and sustainable.”

But is this acceptable to the citizens of Ennis?

How many more years will our city commissioners sit silent and not get emotionally

involved with improving the quality of life in Ennis?

“The Administration Department, through the Office of the City Manager, is responsible for the day-to-day management of and the long range planning for the City of Ennis”.

How many more years will our City leaders and City Commissioners allow the city manager to lead us in the same direction?

J.N. (Red) Sanders Commissioner, Ward 1
Carolyn C. Frazier Commissioner, Ward 2
Tom Abram Commissioner, Ward 3

How many more years are the Citizens of Ennis willing to accept our present City leadership and Commissioners?

It’s been 20+ years now!

How many more years do

we want to continue with the same long range plan

and with the same city manager?

“We can’t solve the problems

by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them”

Get Involved!

It’s time to make a change in our Leadership and our Direction!

What is wrong with Change our City commissioners to get some ba--s and do something about it himself/herself. Sit back and figure this out. Also reverse the questins and ask the citizens to react?????? Go to the council meetings, show your face/faces. sounds like to me you have a personal problem
