Ever wonder what folks were talking about in City Hall in 1987?
Councilman Jason Wiener passed on the news from that spring from some young reporters for the Sussex Times about “City Hall (the place where you pay your parking tickets).” Take a peek here.
“(Mayor Bob Lovegrove) mostly talked about how there was not enough money and how bad our city budget was,” reads part of a story by Ada Brant. “He also discussed the drainage problem in the South Hills, problems funding city parks, zoning, getting along with the city council, traffic tickets and jailhouse conditions.”
Other topics? Drugs and alcohol. Hiking. Cracking jokes.
Don’t you just love that description, though: “The place where you pay your parking tickets.”
