It's one thing to say it, but it's time for city council to deliver on the promise of Moline for all residents. We have the potential, but we need to start acting like the best, instead of looking for ways to make Moline smaller and cutting support for business and community services.
Moline should be a place where people want to live, work and visit. To do that, we must support and fully fund our library, parks and community programs. Remaining mindful of the budget, we should look for opportunities to improve the services residents rely on.
The City of Moline succeeds when our local businesses succeed, providing jobs, entertainment and essential services. We must work harder to support local businesses, especially the small businesses that make Moline a unique and exciting place to live, work and visit.
