Odors are subjective and depend upon the people .

accumulated . She thinks they should have been released immediately. If they are in the budget, then it should
be revised. She is confused about the funds remaining from the South Englewood Business Improvement

a tax increase . She wished we had a better acoustical system . She would like more information regarding her
