City Politicians misusing funds 2 rating By Robert Teel ( Jun 25, 2017) If you live on the North side of the tracks, the area is treated like a step child. Money has been spent foolishly on stuff that most of the home owners wont use or need. My opinion, we need new blood in politics that will fix the issues that have been going on for the 15 years t ...Read More hat i have been here. We are all tax payers and the mayor is in a role of our parent. She won the election so that means that the so called majority wanted her to lead the city, i dont believe that the North side of Richmond voted for a park/walking trail in a flooded area. Since this has started, the ditches in the area are backing up, flooding peoples yards, driveways & garages. At this time, i dont know how much money is allocated for the park but i can confidently find other places to spend that money wisely. Read Less
