Regarding the 11/9/ Richland Source article, ”Mansfield City Council OKs plan for slaughter house operation near airport, ” and 11/7, ”Mansfield City Council to consider zoning change to allow slaughter house operations,” I strongly disagree with this plan. Mansfield cannot be so desperate for business that it is willing to overlook all of the problems […]

Letter to the Editor: What’s the plan for Water Main Initiative?
My name is Rick Taylor. I have two businesses in the city of Mansfield. I do not live within Mansfield’s city limits, so I did not have an opportunity to vote for the Water Main Initiative, but had it been approved, I would have paid for it. I understand some members of City Council are […]

Letter to the Editor: Shelby school board endorsements
“In times like these, it helps to recall that there have always been times like these.” (Paul Harvey) One wonders, if the late Paul Harvey were living in 2023, would he still make a statement like that? I’m not so sure there have ever been “times like these.” As we approach the election on November 7th, what […]

Letter to the Editor: Romanchuk endorses Kemerer
Recently, I heard my name used in a radio ad for a judicial candidate. Ordinarily, this wouldn’t cause concern. I’ve endorsed Attorney Michael Kemerer for Mansfield Municipal Court Judge and have encouraged him to share that endorsement.

Letter to the Editor: Vote for Kemerer
For 20 years, I served the citizens of Mansfield as a police officer. During that time, I had the honor to work with more law directors and prosecutors than I can remember. Many were good, but there was one that stands out in my mind. I was extremely grateful to have many of my cases successfully […]
