Cecil Shaver, the outgoing mayor of American Canyon, has asked for a recount of the Nov. 7 ballots cast in American Canyon, John Tuteu...

Apparently my congratulations were premature according to the article in the Register today..."Shaver calls for a recount"...

And the drama never seems to end here in AC!

Court extends order to stop work at AmCan Wal-Mart By KERANA TODOROV Register Staff Writer Friday, December 1, 2006 6:49 AM PST A California appeals court delivered more bad news Thursday for the proposed Wal-Mart Supercenter in American Canyon, extending an order barring further construction of the...

According to the Register this morning the election results are final. Congratulations to all. One thought that came to mind in regard to the current Wal Mart litigation... if I understand it correctly, the City broke it's own ordinances and also did not follow laws set forth by the State of Califor...

Concerned Mom, I agree with much that you say but... Let's take a look at what many long time residents wanted for this "town". A grocery store, post office, swimming pool, rec center, more schools! These things have been accomplished over the past 10 to 15 yrs. Promises that I was told wh...

Well, I hope that was the first draft because it would be nice to see Coffey and Maguire spelled correctly.

Message to Mookiekuku...Nasty! Your not helping!

I have a campaign promotional idea for you since "money" appears to be no object in your quest to be elected Mayor. BTW: I felt your DVD was very innovative...May even change the way things are done around here at election time. Even mentioned in the Register. My idea: You hire several Ice...

Napa Register Today... “If a person votes for three people, it’s called an over-vote and the city council votes would not be counted,” said Registrar of Voters John Tuteur. “Everything else on that ballot counts but not that race.” Please tell me this does not mean that "one" person could ...

With so much negativity, mud-slinging , misquotes, and candidates and residents attacking each other... What will the future hold for AC's Council? I guess this question is for all the candidates running... Will you be able to work together regardless of who wins? Will you be able to forgive your co...

ac94503

Gee...where did you get that idea?

ac94503

Are we not beyond this sign thing?

Please, "Stop" the nonsense and start talking about the real issues that your neighborhoods face with the daily changes to American Canyon.

Give suggestions to improve...maybe someone is listening.

I received my November issue of the Echo today...

Finally, not just old news... but very interesting information regarding the upcoming election.

Especially the "Letters to the Editor" section.

Setting it straight By Times-Herald readers Article Launched:10/27/2006 07:34:36 AM PDT A recent article in the Napa-Solano Post, entitled "The Race Is On," made gross errors of my qualifications. Because this newspaper is sent to all households in American Canyon, these errors need to be ...

MCB makes a very good presentation why we should vote NO on Measure G. I don't disagree that there should have been more pressure on developers coming into the area to help defray the costs. I also agree that other sources should be investigated...We still have time to do that right? In my view the ...

Why educated people will not vote for this issue?

Are you just trying to bring VicRiv back or do you really beleive what you posted?

I am very surprised by your post. And disappointed.

ac94503

Mr West, Do you really think that this website is "hate.com"? I only ask because through discussion, on this venue, you have been able to respond to any accusation or misinformation that may be out there in the community. I think this forum has never been used to it's potential and you hav...

ac94503

Mr. West,

You probably just got my vote.

Thank you

I heard Joan Bennet at the last Council meeting mention some type of code of ethics for Council members to qualiify to serve on the Council. Can't remember what term was used exactly but apparently there will be a new job description. Please correct me if I am wrong. Also, a new job description for ...

The Eagle is sponsoring a televised candidates forum Wednesday at Canyon Oaks elementary School, 475 Silver Oak Trail, at 7:00 p.m.

This was in an article in this week's Eagle. But that's fine, I hope they will let us know when it will be shown on Channel 28.

ac94503

Maybe I misunderstood but I thought both debates were to be televised?

I hope people that were present tonight will give the highlights.

I understand that last night was a one candidate debate from the article in a local newspaper.

ac94503

Well, did anyone else get a surprise in their mailbox today?

A DVD by Paul Maguire...I will say it is a very novel idea and his presentation was interesting.

I am not a member of Impact 94503. Never have been... I received 2 flyers regarding the Napa State Hospital Investigation. Each addressed to both voters in my house. Why you didn't receive one is anyone's guess. My take on why possibly my "older" neighborhood is being targeted by Mr. Magui...

Years ago women wanted to be recognized for their rights and opinions...You "girls" have set us back years...Stop this nonsense...Stop the gossip...Stop the ridiculous rumors! Stop destroying us as individuals that have more to offer than the "crap" you "girls" want to ...

Oh I get it ...There are 2 flyers... One I'm not sure if you received that was displayed at the city council meeting that has Eucalyptus spelled correctly and is titled, "Mayor Candidates Involvement in Abuses at Napa State Hospital Questioned" That is the flyer I was referring to in my pr...

ac94503

49erf8fuls...I rechecked the return address on my flier and Eucalyptus is spelled correctly...Maybe you got a different run...I am curious what you thought of the content of this flyer.

Frankie G...I forgot to respond to your question regarding the Chamber.
I think Paulette said it all!!!

ac94503

MCB - so what exactly are you saying...since you and other's did not receive the flyer...it's ok? There is no smoke screen here. As for smrtamcan... the flyer's return address is 5500 Eucalyptus, Apt. 214. The permit number is 77. I'm not sure if Cory was insinuating that Maguire used The Post's per...

ac94503

MCB... I will ask you right out. Do you think that the flyer that Mr. Maguire sent to every registered voter was ok? Your post was very disturbing to me and I'm sure to others in this community. But I look at it and realize that when people don't have any real contribution to offer they only have &q...

I have not watched all of the tape of the meeting but did see the public comment portion. I would like to hear from others ( and I know you were either there or watched) what your take was on several of the residents and Council members comments. My comments: Mr. Garcia - The most impressive I have ...

ac94503

Not necessarily, what I was asking is what procedure is in place if the senario I mentioned actually happened. Do you know for a fact that the 3rd highest vote getter will earn that Council seat?

ac94503

FYI: "Vote For No More Than Two"

After posting my observation of Mr. West's statement in the sample ballot I would like to clarify something. The word "true" that I used does not read appropriately as to what I meant. I think the ballot statement was an opportunity for Mr. West to share more information regarding his desi...

I didn't realize that what I thought could be a senario could shut everyone up on this site...You know it could happen!!! I'm sure someone else has thought of this senario? So...why so quiet? Another subject... The statements made by candidates in the election material sent by the County of Napa. Mr...

ac94503

I would like to discuss a particular senario and find out how this will work. If Ms. Coffey wins as Mayor, her seat as a Council Member becomes available. If Mr. Callison and Mr. West win Council Member seats we still have one Council seat available. Will that position be filled by the highest vote ...

I don't mean to sound cruel but what the heck are you talking about?

I recently read that the Holy Family Parish may consider trading some land with Mr. Butler in order to pay for a church long desired by the Catholic Community in AC. The land trade for Mr. Butler would mean more apartments. The land trade for Holy Family would mean a church. I remember Mr. Maguire s...

ac94503

I feel very confused as a voter reading many of the articles in all of the local papers and this website as to what is the truth. Many allegations have been posted on this website and the local press by several candidates. What is true and what is false? Having read the "Post" today there ...

Maybe Ultimate Fitness should consider a "boxing ring"? LOL

Actually, if you have not visited this new fitness center it is a beautiful addition to American Canyon...Take the time to take the tour!

AmCan Chamber should be ashamed and embarrassed By Paulette Freskan-Griffin Tuesday, October 10, 2006 8:12 AM PDT As signs start to pop up on our landscape to announce candidates and measures, I have noticed that there seems to be a “group” appearing: I’ll call them the “Three Amigos.” This is a ver...

I don't know it sounds familiar to me! Hold on to high standards Tuesday, October 10, 2006 8:12 AM PDT In the heat of competition opponents sometimes say and do regrettable things.

I have mentioned before that the schools in the area put on several different events during the school year. The PTA's or PTO's already have many of the games that the kids seem to enjoy. Regardless that it is summer, I think the new boards that are elected prior to school letting out could use the ...

Victor... I think you honestly beleive that your heart is in the right place. However, I have never seen such an arrogant individual in my life. That said... I don't understand what it is you don't like about Mrs. Coffey. Mrs. Coffey has been very articulate in her responses on this website. She see...

Is "Better Learning" on the signs for the passage of this issue...proper English? Maybe "Better Education", "Less Over Crowding" I don't know but the signs appear to be ignorant. Just my opinion.

MCB... My children are grown now...but I spent 5 years of making sure they were on the bus to Vintage before I went off to work. I was always concerned about their welfare traveling Hwy 29 from AC and back. I stressed if they didn't arrive at the usual time back home each day. They didn't seem to mi...

I'm very pleased to hear that the 4th of July committee is being reorganized with new members and ideas. Remember some of the past ideas worked and some didn't. Many of the newer residents may have suggestions that worked in their home towns. Keep an open mind. I would like to start a new topic of &...

ac94503

Cindy, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to the issues I feel are important. I however, don't think I should have to wait for the next 6 to 12 months to see results that I feel could be accomplished on a much more timely schedule. I guess I would say I am tired of waiting... This Ci...

ac94503

Mr. Maguire... ever since you pulled your membership with the Chamber over the lack of a 4th of July budget article are you really surprised that they didn't interview you? In regard to that donation let me say I thought you should have given "nothing" based on Cory's quote in the Napa Reg...

Mr. West, Thank you for your post. You mention that you are in charge of this program. Have you contacted any of the Council Members or City Dept heads regarding this idea? I would be curious to know whether they were open to this arrangement. It sounds like something that could have been implemente...

ac94503

Mr. West, I agree with you and have made the same suggestion on this website some time ago. However, the response was (can't remember who posted it) that the City Worker's Union would not allow these individuals to work in AC. I feel that if AC residents need to put in so many commumity service hour...

I am not sure how we can discuss the major issues such as :a high school, Oat Hill or a Town Center when everyone agrees. So, I will mention again one issue that has bothered me for years.
