'Home, Sweet Home'.... Fairfax, Iowa.


YouTube 9/9/25 
Fairfax, Iowa City Council Meeting,
timestamps:

1:20:00 
{2:03:50 to 2:04.25 Councilman Daly talking about the burial of a  'Dead Horse',
 {Scout}
and a 'Walking Trail' going to 'nowhere', with former Mayor Bernie Frieden}

 to about...
 2:33:00

The meeting was quite interesting.

Appreciated the comments from the Town's People.
Especially... on remembering who to vote for in the future.
I hope, and pray... they'll keep paying attention.

Cindy Anderson.... had some very good comments, and questions.
She's running for Council.
Councilman Wozniak, also... made some great points.

When the clerk says Fairfax notifies The People, 
above... and beyond....
: )
not in my opinion, or in many others.
Above is a sample of the way she words the 'Agenda', in the Fairfax Facts.
; )
Unless you're a city clerk, the 'Agenda'... is pretty vague, at best... to most.
I've personally seen, and heard many, many....
 'surprises'
 at the council meetings, that in my opinion...
the Agenda... didn't come close to 'reflecting' in my mind.
oh my.
: (

Thought, having cameras, FINALLY...
{Thanks...to Mayor Beer. Without her, Fairfax still... wouldn't have them, such...as they are.} 
would alleviate the necessity of attending meetings in person.
; )
Not...so much.
: (
Most of the Council... and clerk, in my opinion...
bring up a lot of 'things' during the meetings, that... unless you attend, can't address, as things seem to get shoved right through, then... it's too late.
: (
Again, my humble opinion.
Watch the videos. You... can form your own opinions.

{Now you know why... I'd rather stick needles in my eyes, than attend.
Have no choice, I need to protect our land, and self. 
'Home, Sweet Home'.
: (
Most everyone I know... especially my Closest Friends, and Family... so want me to get out of Fairfax.
If.... I could, I would.
This... isn't the 'Fairfax'...  I knew, and Loved... from the early 1980's... to when Fairfax asked IDOT for a Bike Trail along 151, and under the 151 bridge, that adjoins our land, and has ultimately left us in a Bowl.
: (
Flooding Pit.
{It all makes sense, I believe... now. The West Cemetery Road Bridge, 'Project'... on the North side of our land... ties right into the Highway 151 Bridge/Trail 'Project. 
Big Money... involved.
Much Bigger 'Project', now... that it too... will have Bike Trail Accommodations, that will hook up to the Bike Trail... under the 151 Bridge, that wasn't supposed to be, per our IDOT Signed, and Recorded Agreement.

The West Cemetery Road Bridge Project.. is my opinion... again, from what The Public Records state. from 8 years ago... or so, they seem to make that clear to me.
We'll see what a Jury thinks.

A Bike Trail... Fairfax, Council and IDOT denied exists.... when I questioned them Over, And Over, until...
 it was built.
: (
The 151 Bridge has a Bike Trail on it. It was built Much Higher to accommodate Fairfax's Bike Trail... under,
and Substantially Wider for Fairfax's Bike Trail.
The shoulder was graded for Fairfax's Bike Trail.
Our land was Condemned... to make Accommodations, for Fairfax's Bike Trail.
It's all in the Public Records.

Makes me sick... to look at the council, the ones who denied...denied...denied, this...
 for 
Years.
: (
IDOT Breached our Recorded Agreement, while doing so.
: (
Beyond Grateful... to Lawyer Meardon...
for continuing to Ride this
 Wrongful...
 Crazy Train.

When People ask me where I'm from...
I say, "Fairfax, Iowa...
A.K.A.
 'Hell'."

Heartbreaking.
Things have to change.}
