Thunder rolls in Belleville
To the editor:
As Memorial Day approaches,
please remember that this holiday
is more than a day off fromwork to
have barbecues and shop for sales.
Memorial Day is a day in which we
should remember our nation's
valiant soldiers who, since the
founding of this great nation, went
in harm's way to protect our coun-
try, our citizens and our way of life.
We owe these men and women a
debt that we can never fully repay.
It has been said that "Freedom is
not free!"
This Memorial Day, May 28, we
invite all of you to come down to
Horizon Park in Belleville to expe-
rience the 8th annual Thunder
Rolls in Belleville. At 2 p.m. a spe-
cial service will begin in honor of
all veterans. This tribute will take
place at the Veteran's Memorial in
Horizon Park, located off Belleville
Lake on High Street. During the
service there will be a time in
which the names of veterans who
have died in the past year will be
called out. Please call us if you
want to add your loved one's name.
Preceding the service there is a
scenic motorcycle run through
parts of Van Buren, making its way
to the Belleville memorial.
Participants for the ride can regis-
ter and line up starting at 11 a.m. in
Wayne County Community
College's front parking lot, 9555
Haggerty, exit 192 off of I-94 and
thennorthonHaggerty.
The motorcycles will start out at
1 p.m. arriving at Horizon Park
between 2 and 2:30 p.m. The serv-
ice will begin once the bikes have
arrived.
There is a $10 donation for rid-
ers and all riders arewelcome. The
money will benefit local veterans
and their families.
Call (734) 697-5090 or e-mail
browngriefcenter@yahoo.com for
more information.
The Brown Funeral Home and
Brown Family Center are very
proud to sponsor Thunder Rolls in
Belleville.

Library opinion is shared
To the editor:
I just wanted to thank you for
writing the article Libraries are
vital services. It was well deserved
press for a institution that's heavily
relieduponby the public!.
Libraries are such a rich
resource that no community is
complete without their presence.
Libraries serve as a refuge for fam-
ilies in these staggering economi-
cal times, with cuts and closings
becoming the "norm" we as patrons
should rally around our public
libraries and support them one
every level.

on a fixed income. It is even more
demoralizing for those on the verge
of losing their homes at any time.
The city is facing an expense it
cannot pay so the fees are being
arbitrarily passed on to residents,
without any input from the people
who are expected to pay the bills.
Then we travel a few miles to
the north and find a community
where tax revenue has dropped a
bit, but really, the impact of the
economy has been minimal. In this
community, the discontinuation of
an intergovernmental agreement
has left onemunicipal partner with
a $900,000 fire budget deficit, an
expense elected officials claim the
township cannot fund.
Rather than take the same
action as their neighbor to the
south, however, these officials
decided to simply reduce the fire
service in the community. The
other huge difference is that in this
community, more than 4,000 resi-
dents petitioned and begged the
officials to levy a special assess-
ment to pay for the fire depart-
ment. These residents wanted the
right to vote on paying for the serv-
ice, rather than have Advanced
Life Support and paramedic serv-
ices left to the luck of the draw as
to which volunteer firefighter or
outside ambulance service rig
might respond to their emergency.
These residents took their offi-
cials to court four times to ensure
that they could vote on the issue
and still were denied that right
when officials bastardized the bal-
lot question so that approval was
nearly impossible.
The common thread as we see it
here is the arrogance and hubris of
authority.
It is the failure to communicate
with the peoplewho pay the bills. It
is the failure to put the priorities of
the voters and even residents who
do not vote foremost in the decision
making process.
The arguments against the
street lighting assessment from
members of that community are
too numerous to list while there
are at least 4,000 people to the
north who can argue just as strong-
ly that they want to pay the same
type of assessment for a service
they feel they need.
It would seem that the failure
here is in the ability of officials in
both communities to listen and
meet the needs of those who actu-
ally do pay the bills.
