In response to the letter by Rich Hildreth (“Pay attention to mayor’s inactions”, Auburn Reporter, May 11) I have never seen such a sore loser.
The Auburn Valley Y and its Happy Hands Club offers a heartfelt thank you to so many who contributed to the success of their first annual pillowcase drive.
I would like to correct some misimpressions contained in a recent article (“City considers contracting out court services,” Auburn Reporter, May 4) about the Auburn Municipal Court.
Your article (“City considers contracting out court services,” Auburn Reporter, May 4) seems very one sided, quoting Judge Harn, the person who obviously wants to take over the business.
I am having a hard time understanding why the City of Auburn would want to farm out our local justice system.
In response to the letter by Kathleen Hamilton (“Allow the Pacific mayor to lead, work”, Auburn Reporter, May): Although I applaud the fact that you took the time to write a letter, I ask that you take the same time to look at issues for yourself.
I wish you could take your Auburn Reporter police blotter column a little more seriously. Instead, you write using a cavalier comedic style that trivializes crime issues.
I, for one, am delighted that the voters of Auburn finally won one, and the bond issue for the roads failed.
I would suggest that those trying to remove Pacific Mayor Cy Sun from office are doing so for a different reason than stated in the article (“Council, union cast vote of no confidence in Pacific mayor”, Auburn Reporter, April 27).
As a daily commuter on A Street Southeast from Lakeland Hills Way to downtown Auburn, I have seen several instances where school buses traveling northbound on A Street Southeast to pickup and drop off children have caused confusion with Auburn’s drivers.
Thank you Mr. York (April 20 letters to editor) for the well-written observations with regard to the apparent bias that the Auburn Reporter has toward the City of Auburn.
To all those who voted against road repairs: So the mayor failed to keep a promise. Is that a reason to throw away a second chance to get our roads fixed?
Again, I’m directing this letter to Mayor Pete Lewis and the high cost of my water bill.
I must take issue at Terry Davis’s comments in the recent article on Auburn roads in the (April 20) Auburn Reporter.
In response to recent letters critical of red light cameras (Auburn Reporter, April 20) it is tempting to paraphrase one of them by asking how any rational person could be opposed to following the law.
In response to Gene Geiss’ letter (“Focus on students, not a new building,” Auburn Reporter, April 20), PLC (Professional Learning Communities) periods are an additional hour that gives teachers a chance to examine students’ work, analyze testing data and identify students that need more time and support. This hour gives teachers more time to focus on students and is a crucial part of their classroom planning.
I am a senior citizen living in a 55-and-over mobile home park in north Auburn. I’ve been here for about four years.
I’m not writing to debate the merits of “Save Our Streets.” I am writing to critique your paper’s pandering and obvious attempt to “sell” SOS to your readers.
I am another one who has been told that the streets in my neighborhood would be redone by the mayor the year after the election, only to find out he does not know what he is talking about.
I have walked through Auburn High School many times in the past few years and do not understand why the building needs to be replaced. It is warm, dry and very functional.
