John Manke is an active former Bay View resident who is involved in numerous neighborhood organizations, including the Bay View Historical Society, the Humboldt Park Fourth of July Association and the Shore Shore Farmers Market. He believes Bay View has a fine tradition in its past that we do not want to lose in the future.
I wish that somehow somebody could correct the deficiencies of out County Park System. Many of our parks are desperately in need of repairs. Some of the restrooms have been condemned by the Milwaukee Health Department as unfit for use. The buildings could use some maintenance. We used to have one of the best park systems in the country, but now that has changed due to budget cuts and staffing losses. In due time we will become the laughing stock of the country due to our lack of concern about our parks. I do not want our parks to look like abandoned graveyards. Please contact your local politician and request that something be done to protect our parks before it is too late.
We have an election coming up soon. If our present politicians do not do anything about our parks, then elect someody who will do something. You, the voter, have the most say into what our future will become. Please choose wisely. Use the power of your vote to support our community.
