Now you may find it difficult to understand why
two people so unalike are sitting side-by-side and
doing a television program.  But we have more in
common than you think.

We both believe that you, the citizens of
Plainfield, need to know just what our leaders
think about the important issues confronting our
town…

And you have a right to know how the people
leading our Village are going to solve these
problems…

So we are going to be asking elected officials to  
talk to us about growth, traffic, transportation, the
construction boom and bust, spending, and many
of the other major issues and problems facing
our area…  

We both want to learn and better understand the
direction our leaders are taking our community.    
And, we want to help you learn and better
understand just what’s going on too.
