Dankwerth's Ads Do Not Tell It All

Like Terry Parish, Helen Dankwerth also thinks she can take out ads in The Explorer and fool the citizens.

The only difference with Dankwerth's ads & those of Parish, is hers is only a 1/4 page, not 1/2.
That's understandable in that Dankwerth isn't getting a windfall of cash from Vestar and the other developers.

But---let's not lose sight of the fact that Dankwertth & Parish vote the same way on almost every issue that benefits the developers, at the expense of the citizens.

Like Parish, Dankwerth pushed through the Golder Ranch Fire District take over of the town hall facilities within one month of taking office after being supported by GRFD in her original election bid.

It was Dankwerth who did her damnedest to get the Utility Tax passed after it was twice defeated. Who can forget her words: "A half a loaf is better than none at all." Forget the fact the citizens got their gas, water & electric bills taxed. That's not Dankwerth's concern. She can afford it!

And then there was her other infamous quote in giving Sanofil-Aventis, the $39 Billion Pharmaceutical Company $360,000 in a construction tax rebate. Dankwerth said: 'It's only a MINUSCULE amount!"

When voting for a 60 foot hotel not permitted by the code, Dankwerth, in essence said, I'm against it, but will vote for it anyway.

As with Parish----there are plenty of more reasons not to vote for Dankwerth. We believe our citizens are too smart and will send Dankwerth packing.
