Pools
Hamilton may or may not have pools this year.
Last year, the city closed two of it’s four pools and suggested residents approve a levy for a water park, which took a 4-to-1 beating at the polls.
Two reports, one designed to analyze the condition of city pools and one designed to analyze the condition of the city’s general fund, will guide the city’s decision on what to do with its final two pools.
Parks and Recreation Director Bob Harris said if there’s any way the city can open its pools, it will. However, the $140,000 budgeted from the general fund for pool operations cast a large shadow as a general fund forecast looms.
Tune into tomorrow’s issue to read more about the reports. More to follow in the coming weeks.

Liquor permits
Last week, city council objected to the renewal of liquor permits for two Hamilton bars.
I’ve received limited reaction to the move. One was a phone call from a woman who lives in Lindenwald who was very happy to hear the city objected to the renewal for Bob’s Cafe.
The other was a message from a man in support of Tailg8tors, the other bar to which the city objected. Check out his response:
“You neglected to include in your story that the owners of Tailg8tors purchased Weezies in 2006 and then changed the name to Tailg8tors. They have been pouring money into it since then. They have been trying to make it a classy place.
I think it’s funny that when trouble happens one is expected to call the police. And yet when you do you can lose your business over it.

What do you think about it?
