LGA is what keeps Minnesota’s communities safe and strong, but if Governor Pawlenty’s proposed cuts to LGA take effect, Winona plans to lose 2 to 3 police officers. Cutting LGA will jeopardize public safety in cities across the state and take Minnesota in the wrong direction. If you value safe communities, contact Governor Pawlenty and your legislators, and tell them to protect LGA.

Do not cut LGA. Times are tough, we know this. However, with tough times also comes stress and we are already seeing an increase in crime in our city. More muggings, break-ins, etc. This is not the time to cut basic services such as police, fire, libraries or park rec programs. In tough economies people need to be able to find activities that are “reasonable” if not free. Libraries and Park Rec departments offer those types of services to the tax payer. Leave LGA alone - if anything INCREASE it.
