There is a funny little story making the rounds at the Villa Hills Civic Club. We applaud any council person who comes to a meeting prepared. But, if the civic club story is true, the preparation they describe may be a little extreme.
So here's the story. They say the top vote-getter in last year's council race stopped by the civic club to get an adult beverage before a recent council meeting. He decided to take it in a "GO" cup. Fair enough. But it gets better. Evidently the meeting was going a little too long. The council member must have been getting a little bored. Or maybe just a little dry. Why? Because he came back for a refill during the meeting.
We have to admit we understand. How many times can you listen to Mayor Martin mangle the English language after all? And who can sit through yet another half hour Mike Pope dissertation on his MILLION DOLLAR ROAD PLAN?
Maybe Martin shouldn't be wasting taxpayer money building a concrete parking lot at the city building. Perhaps the meetings would go more smoothly if he spent that money installing a wet bar in the council chambers instead.
