Metra Board Chairman Resigns

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-metra-chairman-resigns-amid-political-scandal-20130801,0,1066336.story

It's time for Brian LeClercq and Oswego Village Trustees to move on ... because their train ain't coming to Oswego ... there's no Fed & State funds for it ... Metra / RTA are cesspool of political corruption. 

Plus, we really don't want that added 1% Sales Tax in Kendall County to become a RTA member when residents here can easily drive 15 min to Aurora (Kane County) and get Metra there.

Brian and his politician friends in the photo can SAVE taxpayers some money by ending the ~$6000/Year Subsidy for a few Oswego riders to bus into Aurora from the Oswego Park-N-Ride. Then sell that 10 acre parking lot at Orchard / Mill to bring jobs to Oswego so we can add some money to Village coffers with this land sale and increased tax base.
