Think Twice Marvin: Village of Marvin Council is out of control
http://thinktwicemarvin.blogspot.com/2010/11/marvin-town-council-is-out-of-control.html
Wednesday, November 3, 2010. Village of Marvin Council is out of control. Why are they putting a public park in the middle of a residential community?

Think Twice Marvin: What Happened at the Public Meeting on November 9
http://thinktwicemarvin.blogspot.com/2010/11/what-happened-at-public-meeting-on.html
Tuesday, November 9, 2010. What Happened at the Public Meeting on November 9. Citizens of Marvin and surrounding neighborhoods let the Council know that the park location was not acceptable for many reason. Only one person spoke in favor of the park, while seven spoke against it. The Council seemed disinterested in the public comments. One Council member rarely looked up from his computer screen, showing total indifference and disdain for the genuine concerns of the residents. December 1, 2010 at 8:17 AM.
