Vox Pop-July 10

Posted: July 9, 2012 - 5:45pm

No auto-reply

What is going on? I emailed the mayor of Brainerd about a month ago and I didn’t even get an auto-reply. Mayor Walden, do your job. The least you could have sent was a “Thanks for your email. I will review your request.” Is that too hard? Do your job or watch people vote you out. You are supposed to serve us as the people that voted for you.

Editor’s note: Perhaps there was no response because Brainerd’s mayor is James Wallin, not James Walden.

Email

When I sent the email I did it from the Brainerd City Website, no spell check needed. I had the typo when I sent in the VoxPop. Don't be assuming the typo was sent when emailing the mayor.

"Don't be assuming...la la

"Don't be assuming...la la la" if your request sounded anything like the vox pop above I wouldn't have responded either

Assuming

Anauheimer. When I send an email off a month ago, and I don't get so much as a reply to a simple question that was put out respectfully, what do you expect.
