Monday's meeting is a go

COLUMBIA TALK will host a town meeting on Monday night, Aug. 2 at 6:30 p.m. under the big pavilion at Glatfleter Field. (RAIN OR SHINE)
Come with ideas with a vision for the future of Columbia Borough. Ideas that can be presented to our borough leaders.
COLUMBIA TALK have been reading the many comments posted on this site and have an idea of what needs to be done. Sure, there will be some complaining about issues, but if we all work together, with one goal in mind, our entire community, we can make things better.
We have a proud town of around 10,000 people and we need to draw on our pride and our sense of community to do that. COLUMBIA TALK isn't looking for single agenda people or one issue people to help, we have to work together in what is the best interest of the community. If we have to start small, let's do it. We will not form a vigilante group, which has been suggested because that won't get things done. Working together will.
Also, someone has suggested inviting members of the council and school board. They read COLUMBIA TALK and shouldn't need a special invitation if they want to be there.
I'm looking at more suggestions as to what to talk about, but here are a few -- how to run for office, what is needed to run for office, borough council, code enforcement, borough projects and how to make officials become accountable.
If you can't be there and have questions or concerns, let me know and it can be discussed.

Anybody can come, why would you ask about the cottage people? I am not one of them for the record, just not sure why they have been singled out by you? Nor do I take a stand at this point on the issue. But I find myself offended at the question you pose. PLEASE come with an open mind and ideas to make Columbia better :)

I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD SHOW UP. SHOW SUPPORT FOR OUR TOWN. GET THE ISSUES OUT IN THE OPEN. THIS SHOULD BE A START IN TAKING BACK OUT TOWN.
