Vandals

What is wrong with people?

First the city removed the gazebo from Ben Givens park downtown due to vandalism, now they have removed the wooden statue of the train conductor in front of the Park Park engine. Makes you want scream! Next, we'll have to use roll down metal gates in front of stores.

More seriously, what can be done from a city/law enforcement approach toward vandalism preventing-punishment to slow this stuff down?

Rubbermaid jobs coming?

This story is reminiscent of back in 2006 when a Rubbermaid plant in Iowa closed and moved some jobs to Winfield. There was a concerted effort to recruit the employees from Iowa and help them locate and find housing here. I believe Cowley First was involved.
