Of Note?

From the May 1st edition of the Parkville Paper that my puppy poops on, an article entitled "Of Note" an article that was written about the The last Friday event "Flair." the article claims the event was sponsored by the Parkville Chamber of Commerce and the Parkville pet cage liner. Unfortunately the paper got the sponsor wrong it was Main Street Parkville Association. But then that is what you get for "unbiased" reporting.

The "article" goes on to report that the event was a success, 300 people in attendence, and in an attempt to to critique the Power Plant, The author complained about "dysfunctional" Toilets. and the claim that the power plant was a "vacant" building was also untrue. when a building is being used it is not vacant. The use of the building for the event was donated by Tom Hutsler. The author of the article claims there was "no comment" from Hutsler about the "dysfunctional" toilets, the reason that there was no comment from Hutsler was that the "author" of the article never called to ask for a comment of the situation of the "dysfunctional" toilets. Nice to know that the "author" is thorough in gathering all the information in regards to the story for this section.

I asked Hutsler for a comment on the situation of the "dysfunctional" toilets and he responded that the reason for the "Dysfunctional" toilet in question was that toilet was stuffed full of things that were not meant to go down the toilet, according to the plumber that was brought in to repair the toilet in question. I seriously question the aptitude of the editor of the Parkville Paper that my dog poops on, if this the best he can do then I should begin to report on the activities that occur in my town I live in. At least I can be objective on what I report.

Changes in Downtown

The e-mails are flying, and I am sure that there will be a newspaper publisher running stories and editorials that will attempt to make downtown Parkville look as bad as possible. Of course, as everyone says, his job is to sell newspapers and not to promote the town.

Well, here's the news for all of us: While it is true that Angelo Gangai announced that the Power Plant Restaurant and Brewery is closing indefinitely downtown Parkville still has the lowest vacancy rate of any of the business areas in the town with the possible exception of the strip center on Missouri Highway 45. The loss of the Power Plant is to be mourned as is the figure of Angelo briskly walking the downtown streets taking care of his many tasks. We saw the last group gathering at the Power Plant, a campaign strategy meeting for Bill Quitmeier. As one leaves three others are coming in.

Word has it that a book store is coming to downtown as well as a tea room. In addition the scooter/motorcycle shop is coming along and we hop we'll soon see it in operation on County Highway FF west of the Power Plant building. We can count on one hand the vacant storefronts in the downtown. We wonder how many hands it takes to count the vacant storefronts in Parkville Commons. Comments?
