Stu the Poo goes down the Drain



Slowly but surly the old Fishers ruling group is vanishing. The old Town Council that did not believe in the power of the voters is almost all gone. The last of the big four went down the drain today as Brad DeReamer overwhelmingly brought down Stuart F. Easley aka Stu the Poo

Stu was one of the leaders that believed the Town should remain and worked to stop the vote by the citizens on a town vs. a city. So he joins Scott Faultless in the graveyard of politics.

Another factor is that Brad DeReamer will bring a fresh face to Fishers politics and someone who is not in the pocket of the developers. The Mayor and other Council members may be in for a big shock. I am certain in talking with Brad that he is going to stop the secret deals and speak out to let the citizens of Fishers know what is going on. I am still amazed how all of a sudden all these buildings are popping up and of course with taxpayer’s footing part of the development via tax credits and even out and out money. Tax breaks that hurt our schools and I am certain he will speaking out and letting us all know when they are trying to play their games.

If you want to help Brad in his quest to stop the Council nonsense you will have another chance. Greg Purvis who was one of the founders of City Yes will be running for the Council at large. He is more fiscally conservative than most of the Council members and will also raise questions and let the public know what is going on.

More on Greg will be coming later as we closer to the election.

To all who voted for Brad today, on behalf of the citizens of Fishers a big thank you.
