[Winona Online Democracy]
Mr. Dittman,
I am not going to get into a rant with you, obviously you are very angry with the city government. I stand by my statement and believe the city has came a long way in the past 10 years and I am proud of Winona.
Regarding the traffic problem, I agree with you. Do you have a solution to the problem?
Regarding jobs for degree holders? Unemployment is at 4.8%(theoretically zero) this is a town of 27000 people, and two colleges that produce degree holders about every four or five months..it is inherent that there will be a lack of "degree holder jobs", so degree holders cant all work in Winona, some may have to commute, some may have to leave, there is a certain degree of financial sacrifice you have to make to live in a smaller town.
Regarding the riverfront and marina ? it is exactly that type of thinking that stagnated Winona during the 70's and 80's...I implore you to take a day drive up
river and see what I am talking about. To imply that one good wedding would impact the local economy the same is preposterous. And again, I stand behind my belief that we should be putting a future development plan together regarding riverfront development.
Regards,
C.E. Woodford
