I am surprised that they made an intelligent decision. Maybe they could talk to the school board.

If they had passed it, most people would have ignored it anyway. They are tired of being punished because of those who won't get vaccinated and those who won't are just idiots who don't care about others

Science stated that the commonly used masks do not protect against a virus. Now, suddenly, they do? Too many contradictions. COVID seems to be a smoke screen, hiding what is happening to our country. I am far more concerned with the increase in divisive activities and rampant crime.

Anyone with a basic understanding of communicable disease would know.

Until this virus is under control, with Boone County a hotspot, not requiring masks will keep it spreading. There was progress being made with guidelines in place. Everyone was getting back to life. This is what responsible people want. So many lost lives, so sad, and could have been avoided.

How stupid to say that masks don't work.... Why does your doctor wear one during surgery?

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Most people already drive 75 MPH, at least. Trust the people.

A lot of people drive faster than the posted speed limit - 75 to 80 instead of 70. Increasing the speed limit will just push the actual travel rates higher - 80 to 85 instead of 75. With all of the heavy trucks on the road (some that drive slow), higher speeds are just dangerous.

Drivers are already driving 5 to 10 miles over the current limits so if it's increased I'm pretty sure they'll exceed the new limits.
