Lack of coverage

Hello and welcome to an independent and open view of the politics and policies that affect the local community of Sidney, Nebraska and the surrounding county.

The purpose of this Blog is to detail attention to the various activities which have meaningful impact on your lives, your taxes and your responsibility to be a good citizen. I will attempt to do what the local news media outlets refuse to do, which is openly cover all of the news that may cause you to pay higher taxes or fees and to give those of you who wish to participate in a more open and responsive form of discourse.

Your local elected and appointed officials will also be encouraged to participate or respond to your questions of facts presented herein and hopefully, a more direct form of accountability will result from the efforts of all who participate.

I will be soliciting additional writers and regular columnists who will bring many divergent views to the table and hopefully a strong representative sample of our community. If you or someone you know would like to participate, please email guardianofsidney@gmail.com for and invite. For safety and security reasons, you must make me aware of who you are, but rest assured, your identity will remain confidential as long as you choose to keep it so. It is the ideas and discussion I am after. Let's do our best to make everyone aware of what we expect from our local community.

Sincerely,

"The Guardian"
Good luck and good reading.
