Boomgaard District…. Maak Een Deal

By Janet Evans

Now that the Oak Creek Common Council has officially sent the name Boomgaard packing, (yes, they actually took a vote) it appears the Boomgaard District will be no more. 

The power of the blogs….

 

As for Franklin, maybe it has something to do with "B" issues....

Boomgaard...Buckhorn...Budget (tax pledge)....





With the domain name “www.boomgaarddistrict.com” being of no use to the Franklin-Oak Creek Steering Committee, nor the cities of Franklin and Oak Creek, I was wondering what will now become it?  It is registered under the Zizzo Group. 

Most domain names cost only $9.95 for registration, but we have paid a pretty penny for the entire fiasco and will still be paying as a new name is sought.  Perhaps some of the money could be recouped by selling the now infamous domain name.

You never know who might want www.boomgaarddistrict.com.  Perhaps a real orchard may want to use it.  Or a blogger.  Actually, the possibilities are endless.  May the highest bidder win…..if the committee/city is willing to sell.

Actually…I would place the first bid if they want to get something going.  They’re auctioning off a house on the city website, why not a domain?

I would start bidding at let me think……$10.00!

That should start the ball rolling.  So, let’s make a deal!

Boomgaard!

I noticed you pictured a "half dozen" monkeys in your post.  Is there a specific reason you chose a half dozen?

Well, Fred....first of all, the monkeys don't mean anything except for the fact that they are the symbol for hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil...which is what I am implying.  But you know that.

I personally am using six symbols for several different reasons.  Six aldermen from the past regarding decisions made with Boomgaard, six aldermen from the present who wouldn't bring Boomgaard forward at Common Council meetings, six aldermen from the past through present who have been following “due process” with the Buckhorn, and six aldermen present who either participated or said nothing regarding the property tax display during the Common Council meeting. The "six" only have to do with the "Bs."  

As far as I am concerned, there has been a lot of intentional silence, deaf ears, and blindness regarding these issues.

Regarding all other city issues…I would have to disregard the “monkeys,” or at least the majority of them.
