To the editor
What is it with our local law
enforcement
What are we paying
wages for with our tax dollars, if
they don t want to do the job ’
First of all I am referring to the
diagonal parking area fronting the
Museum Library
Why are semi
and truck traitors allowed to park in
the diagonal area where cars could
park and have easier access to the
building especially in the area of the
handicapped ramp area’
There are night meetings held in
the building each month Most arc
attended by senior citizens and some
handicapped persons
During one meeting a policeman
came in to ask a handicapped person
to repark his rig as it wasn t legally
I»arked Rut do they ask the truck
drivers to please move down" No I
have witnessed a police car pass the
building during the hours we are
open time and again and I am sure
they have noticed the parked trucks
making the building inaccessible to
patrons of both Library and Muse
um
What can be done''
I hope
something and soon, before some
older person is injured by falling on
ice which is never cleared off city
sidewalks o r due to the poor light
mg fall, because it was neccesary to
park so far from the lightest area at
night or a child hit during story hour
as they had to park far away and
maybe cross a busy street

Extra care needed in cold weather
To the editor
At this lim e of year when our
thoughts turn to Peace on Earth.
Good Will Toward Men. and in the
comfort of our home w ith family and
friends we also should think of the
special care our animals need be
cause of the cold weather
Your animals, who are living
outside need warm water twice a
day. and good nourishing food at
least once a day
They also need a well protected
place where they can go to get out of
the weather
It takes much more food energy to
keep animals warm, and they tend
to loose weight because of thrw
energy drain
We realize that all who care for
their animals will have already done
these thoughtful things Hut now by
law. as of May 1984. these are
required
Abandoned animals have little
chance to survive Water is frozen,
food lacking, and shelter scarce in
this weather
Young animals have
no chance at all
Please call us before you decide to
break the law by abandoning or
