I am an unincorporated Violet Township resident (U.V.T.R) and I will never ever desire to merge with the city. The true townships residents have already spoken ?– period! Though it seems that a few ?“Strong Citizens?” are hell bent on making us ?“one?”, I?’ve got a news flash: we are not one; never were one; will never be one.
So now we read that our Board of Education may have been solicited to petition the city for annexation... all in the name ?“safety.?” For the kids?… you know. And Violet Township can?’t get the county to change the speed limit near the new school site. But hey, if it were city property, city hall would have already had them speed limit signs posted and maybe even some stoplights to boot. Never mind that the only traffic thus far is bulldozers and backhoes. Got to keep them kids safe you know.
Merge? Are you crazy! Just look at apathy of city residents toward their government. Do we township residents want to be part of these lobotomized masses? Heck no! We enjoy and demand a response government. Not the sort that find them selves running the city now, but real live people. People who actually listen to the folks they claim to represent.
Our elected officials already know, if you oppose the citizens of Violet Township, you?’ll be unseated. Just ask Mary Hartman. Even though I believe she was really trying to do her best when it came to rezoning, Violet Meadows and Wellington Park did her in. She said, ?“the citizens should negotiate with the developers?” and we said, ?“See ya!?”
Last news flash for Brian Fox: If you want to run and win a seat in a real office, like perhaps state representative, move. Why? Because unincorporated Violet Township residents will not support you or the voting record you?’ve had with Pickerington city council.
