Lincoln Daily News
welcomes letters of appreciation, information and
opinion on matters pertaining to the community.
Controversial issues:
As a
community we need to be able to talk openly about
matters that affect the quality of our lives. The
most effective and least offensive manner to get
your point across is to stick to the issue
and refrain from commenting on another person's
opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the
issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

 To the editor:I want to
express my sincere thanks and appreciation to the citizens of Ward 2
for allowing me to serve as your Alderman.
The past 5 ½ years have given me a singular
appreciation for the layers of complexity that make up Municipal
Government that can only be learned in the trenches. Public service
at any level is a difficult, yet exceptionally rewarding, task.
To all who have served, are continuing to serve,
or have the propensity to do so in the future, I applaud you. As an
Alderman, I have been afforded the opportunity to work alongside
wonderful, hardworking, dedicated individuals. To all of you, I am
extremely grateful.
[to top of second column in this letter] |
Lincoln is not unlike many communities in Illinois.
We have our struggles, but I can tell you first hand that we also
have a tremendous number of successes. This community has heart,
compassion, and desire. This community spirit is what made me want
to serve, and I’m glad I did!
Sincerely,
Michelle Bauer [Posted
