To the Editor:
Wake up, Waukon and all towns in the USA. We need a recipe to improve our town, like most towns. We are concerned citizens and want to make our town the best it can be.
Let’s put together a program to promote a better town. Let’s form a group of leaders that meet once every month to discuss and analyze the situation and needs. That group would be our sheriff, our chief of police, all church ministers and priests, leading business men, school superintendent, mayor, Chamber of Commerce, etc. They would let it be known that we support our police and sheriff departments 100 percent.
If you come to our town with the intent of selling drugs, especially to our youth, and you get caught, you will be arrested, placed in our new jail, and fed bread and water. When you get out, you’ll high-tail it out of town and never even think of selling drugs here - that’s a promise.
