Starkville sidewalks: 'We must begin somewhere'

Editor's note: Columbus City Council has passed a sidewalk ordinance that would require (when feasible) the building of sidewalks in any new development. Both the sidewalk ordinance and the Senior Enrichment Center are seeking to provide a positive impact within our city. Support for one does not indicate opposition for the other. In fact they should go hand in hand.

Unions have outlived their usefulness

Steve Moore raised several good points in his letter supporting the right of labor unions to strike (Voice of the people, Aug. 25).

Letter; Charmed by visit

My friends and I visited your town in June.

Disagrees with judge's gay marriage ruling

Openly gay Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker's decision to overturn the voter approved Proposition 8, that defines marriage as between one man and one woman in California, slices at the jugular of true democracy.

Disagrees with councilman on four-day work week

I disagree will the comments by Charlie Box concerning the four-day work week by the public works in the July 20 issue of the Dispatch. As a local business owner, we benefit from four-day work weeks by simply being able to keep our work trucks off the road for one day, especially during the current recession.

Questions about gas pricing

Either I, and others in our community, needs to be educated on how gasoline at the pumps is priced or our local gas stations are price gouging.
