I must've missed that photo

I must've missed that photo op. Oops. But it was nice to get some pics of Jordan High School students helping the DNR stock the pond with fish from Pelican Lake, which is in Wright County. The DNR will be back next week to continue the process.

Who is jumping in

Ray Sandey — Wed, 07 May 2008 10:21:50 -0500

Who is jumping in first?

Should it be the Mayor or maybe the Mayor and the council can all run in together.

I think it would be a great photo op!

From time to time, this Web site will bring up an old story. I'm guessing that's what you saw -- something from two years ago (one city council election ago), when Trudy Smith and Dale Oldenburg resigned. Jeremy Goebel was re-elected that year, there were several candidates, and David Hanson and Jeanne Marnoff joined the council.

How sad that someone would

How sad that someone would steal and torture an animal! Why would he think it was okay to kill someone's pet? Pets are members of the family.

I hope this man is punished severely.

My heart goes out to the family that lost their pet.

I will apologize for my

I will apologize for my above statement, must have been a computer error. Because me and 3 people I know read the same article. But on the same date in Feb. at the same time different computers, and it looked like it was just posted. Front Page internet.

Again I am sorry. For my above statement.

That is incorrect. Goebel's

Mathias Baden — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 11:14:17 -0500

That is incorrect. Goebel's seat on the Jordan City Council is not up for election this year. Most recently, he was re-elected in 2006. City council and mayoral terms run for four years.

The seats held by Mayor Ron Jabs and councilmembers Sally Schultz, Mike Shaw, and Barry Ullmann are up for election this November. To my knowledge, none of these candidates has announced his or her intentions about re-election.

If someone wants to file for city elections, they ought to do so between Aug. 26 and Sept. 9. For more information, call the city at 952-492-2535.

Another good place for discussion about the city council election might be in this forum: http://www.jordannews.com/community/forums/local-goverment/city-election....

I do not remember who was

nowtap — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 10:28:58 -0500

I do not remember who was not seeking reelection. But Jeremy Goebal was. It was from a artical printed on this site, also it was around filing date dead line.

Who is seeking reelection

swansonmej — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 11:17:38 -0500

Who is seeking reelection and who is not? I haven't seen any announcements?

The problems with waiting

nowtap — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 13:47:29 -0500

The problems with waiting until election time is only 1 is seeking reelection, the other 2 are not. So hopfully people still remember this issue at the time the other seek reelection if they do.

Just wait until elections

swansonmej — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:05:55 -0500

Just wait until elections are held, then we will see who won.

Taking the land by condemnation did not need to happen. The intersection did not need to be widened in order to replace the lights.

Shame on the city for taking land away from the Church that has been in existence 150 years.

I didn't vote because my choice is not up there.....

My favorite part of spring is placing the covers on the snowmobiles.....8 more months and we will be taking them off again. Think SNOW!

Mathias Baden — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 14:51:19 -0500

Walked out of the house to hear a woodpecker. Ahh, spring! Yay! Time to go away, snow. See you next year.

I have heard Cardinals

swansonmej — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 10:23:28 -0500

I have heard Cardinals singing already. I heard someone say yesterday that they have seen Robins.

To me, nothing says spring like the birds singing and letting us know they are back.

I voted for the smell of

Brandon — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 08:57:09 -0500

I voted for the smell of mud, but I must say that I am looking forward to hearing birds signing on a warm spring day almost just as much.
