| We would note that the Town
Boards vote in favor of the medical center was unanimous. A few months
later, three of the board members stood for re-election and faced no
opposition. In a representative democracy like ours, this says much about
support for the Aurora project. |

Town of Summit residents should have voted on hospital (letter to
the editor)
Waukesha Freeman, Mar. 29, 2006
After reading Mr. Prassers letter, lets set the record straight
regarding the town of Summits wishes regarding the new Aurora
hospital. I keep hearing advertisements on radio and in the area
newspapers on how the town of Summit residents support this hospital
and how the county board isnt respecting their wishes. Well that is
simply not true.
The
town of Summit board decided to support the hospital. The residents
went to all their meetings and begged for a referendum so that the
residents could make their wishes known. But the town board, in its
infinite wisdom, chose not to do that and because those residents
against the hospital do not have the monies of Aurora, our voices
wont be heard.
I only hope that if we ever get the vote on the village issue,
our voices will finally be heard. We dont need a village. We have
no commercial property other than the hospital site and if we became
a village, we wont have that. A village will just mean more taxes
for the residents. I have yet to see a city or village have less
taxes than a town.
Please let us vote!
