Cuts that hurt
Mayor Tony Dover speaks to the DNJ about the need for a balanced budget. The revenue the town pulls in has been hit hard by a stagnant economy so the belt tightening that has been going on for the last few years needs to get even more tight...and this is a must, not a need.
"As the economy began to slow and we started seeing a reduction in sales tax collections and development revenues, we did what any prudent business does and started implementing cost saving measures to cut back on expenses until things improved. After 3 years of doing this, it is clear that we will not see a return to the growth we were living on in years past.Some of the areas that cuts could come from are talked about in this article.
It’s likely that will mean fewer employees in the police and fire departments, as those departments make up the bulk of the budget. For the last three years, Smyrna has implemented cost-saving measures such as freezes to merit raises, cutting off travel and training, and even putting an end to free coffee. But those aren’t sustainable changes, according to Mayor Tony Dover, who wants the next budget to be a model for a “leaner, more efficient” vision of the town.I wish the mayor well on what likely will be a painful exercise.

Help locate this suspect
From the Smyrna Police Department:
WE NEED YOUR HELP TRYING TO IDENTIFY THIS BURGLARY SUSPECT
On Saturday, March 24, 2012 at approximately 2 pm, a white male illegally entered the Murfreesboro Medical Clinic West (formerly known as Bell Family Medical) in Smyrna.

The suspect was driving a late model, white Chevy S-10 or Sonoma truck with a regular cab and stepside bed. Our suspect is described as a white male, heavy set with glasses and appears to be in his late 40's or early 50's. He is also a suspect in another burglary that occurred another Smyrna business on this date. Photos of the suspect/vehicle are attached to this email.
Anyone with information about this suspect or this burglary is requested to contact Detective Jason Anderson at (615) 459-9742, ext. 7433.

Good News
I'll go ahead and say it...getting to the Tennessee Vehicle Inspection program center and getting tested was and is a pain in the rear. Their times really were not conductive to making us happy.
Well they've extended their hours and now fewer people will cuss when they get the reminder to get tested in the mail.
Well they've extended their hours and now fewer people will cuss when they get the reminder to get tested in the mail.
Envirotest Systems Products’ emission testing service center at 271 Weakley Lane in Smyrna has extended its hours of operation, making the service even more convenient.I hope this good news makes some of you happier.

The dirt starts flying
Although we are currently in 6th district in the US house of Representatives. We will be moving into the 4th district and will have to vote as such in the August and November elections this year. In this new district already the dirt is flying.
Currently the 4th is represented by U.S. Rep. Scott DesJarlais. He is a republican and is being challenged by State Sen. Eric Stewart. I'll admit that I really don't know much about either so their actions during this election cycle will determine a lot on how I will view them and also my final vote.
Sadly the dirt is flying already and the first blow seems a rather cheap blow.
Now the timing of this early charge by DesJarlais is being called into question by Stewart because of the following.

Sadly the dirt is flying already and the first blow seems a rather cheap blow.
State Sen. Eric Stewart said Monday he paid a $100 fine in 2010 for inaccurate campaign finance reporting following a Tennessee Bureau of Ethics and Campaign Finances audit.Now this could be a case of bad bookkeeping or a sign of incompetence, but a simple $100 fine rather implies how big this really was...it wasn't.
......
“With regards to our campaign disclosures from over three years ago, our campaign made some mistakes. I took responsibility for them, worked with the Registry (of Election Finance) and made the appropriate corrections,” said Stewart.
Now the timing of this early charge by DesJarlais is being called into question by Stewart because of the following.
“At a time when folks are still struggling to get back on their feet and small businesses are worried about how they are going to make payroll, DesJarlais is trying to distract voters from recent news that he spent over $250,000 of taxpayer money to help his re-election campaign, that he took political contributions in return for letters of support for federal funding...I hope this is not a sign of a long and dirty campaign. I am hoping to learn positions, causes, job experience, and things about their character.

Leaving Iowa
Anyone who has ever been on a family vacation can relate to the trials and tribulations, the fun and the foibles of hitting the road for a couple of weeks. Sibling battles over territory in the back seat; dad trying to rouse enthusiam in the kids by pointing out historical markers; mom doing her best to serve as referee, peacemaker and cheerleader. If it seems like its more fun to poke fun at other people’s family vacation experiences than hitting the road for your own, you are not alone. That’s what makes Leaving Iowa such an enjoyable outing.
Leaving Iowa closes out Lamplighter’s Theatre Company’s 2011-2012 “A Place to Belong Season” with just the right mix of nostalgia, poignancy, and belly laughs. A homegrown comedy that is filled with folksy sentiment, genuine charm and humility,
Leaving Iowa is a postcard to anyone who has ever found themselves driving alone on a road, revisiting fond memories of their youth.
Lamplighter’s Theatre Company’s production of Leaving Iowa runs April 20, 21, 22, 27, 28 & 29. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 pm; Sunday performances are at 4:30 pm.

What they do in the house.
You can view politicians in many ways to judge them. I'm going to use the old "actions speaks louder than words" to let you get a feel of what our politicians are doing as our representatives.

I'll admit surprise on some of Rick Womicks sponsored bills. He has become a vocal opponent to the Agenda 21, yet the two specific bills (HB3572 and HB3571) addressing this issue were both taken 'off notice'. I'm not sure if that implies a lack of support, or the knowledge that neither would pass even with the support they have.
This is how things stand on the bills on the state website. Fun, fun, fun. The Senate will be addressed this coming week for those interested.

The House in a nutshell
A lot of people simply don't know who they're represented by, so I figure a few maps and links will start off a the new political posts I plan on doing in the very near future.
Smyrna is currently split between Tennessee State House district 49 and district 34 as these maps show. The links go to a PDF of the full map and not the cropped images used to show the Smyrna area only.
District 49 is represented by Mike Sparks. He is a long time resident of Smyrna and a local business owner. District 34 is represented by Rick Womick. Rick lives in Rockvale, a small community southwest of Murfreesboro.
You might have heard in the news last year the process in which new districting maps were drawn up for most levels of government due to the last census. These maps have really moved things around for our end of the county. An example is the two current representatives. The next election in November we will be voting for district 49 and district 37...and oddly enough there are a few blocks of southern Smyrna stuck in the newly redefined district 34. Links go to PDF maps of each district.
The new District 49
The new District 37
The new District 34
The Daily News Journal kindly put up the list of people who have filed to run for the house seats.
In district 49 we have Republican Mike Sparks verses the Democrat Mike Williams.
In district 37 we have three contenders. Republicans Richard P. Garvin and Dawn White verses Democrat Robert “Bob” New.
In district 34 we have Republican Rick Womick running against Luke E. Dickerson and Spencer L. Douglas.
In the two districts where two candidates of the same party are running the winner of the primaries will go head-to-head for the final November vote.
Well that's it, and as dry as all this information is I am rather intrigued at the election this year. Politics recently has been volatile and I wonder how the many hot issues will effect the final vote.
