Ready to work with new administration

Posted April 21, 2009 11:00 pm

Thank you for your excellent reporting and endorsement of the 4 Change Coalition in Bensenville. You were right on target. Now that all the elections are over, what we truly need in Bensenville, village board and all the boards in this community is an honest effort of working together to heal our town. I think with Frank Soto and company we have that type of leadership and good will. The recent comments made by Ray Basso and Rich Johnson were unnecessary, as these two individuals were and are a part of the problem, not the solution, to establishing goodwill. Mr. Basso knelt before the throne of Geils for years while on the village board, and Rich Johnson is a shadow of Geils, who is more interested in power than growth for the park district. I know because I served on the park board for 14 years. We in the White Pines unincorporated community of Bensenville, will be happy to work with the new board; we couldn't get to first base with the current administration.
