Up first is the UW-O city services survey.
Now, before we get all excited about this survey vindicating certain opinions we may or may not have (a-hem...), let's take this thing with a grain of salt. There are numerous reasons to doubt that this is an accurate representation to the city. The number of returned surveys seems rather small and judging by the popularity of the Senior Center, I would gather that the respondent pool also skews a little on the older side. The questions leave much to be desired for as well, as they seem a bit nebulous.
So we should be right on board any paragraph that starts off: "Mayor Paul Esslinger said other parts of the survey seemed inconclusive," right? And we were ... but then we read the rest of it:
In particular, the survey noted that the majority of recipients either had no opinion on the Pollock Aquatic Center or gave it low marks. The survey also found that 78 percent of recipients did not have children.Huh?"I don't know how to take that," he said.
Of all the things that could be said about the survey the only thing the mayor could think of commenting on was the swimming pool?

Don't think Paul doesn't get even more puffed up with all the press his HighnASS is getting. He lives for seeing his name in print, and being on the radio and tv. By the time his term is over we'll be reconstructing city hall so he can fit his ego in it.
"I don't know how to take that."
Well, maybe you should THINK about it for a while.

Statistically, it's probably the same way he won the election.
