EDITOR:
On behalf of the citizens from Platte County, I would like to thank The Landmark Newspaper for informing us about the hidden tax on the MCC ballot initiative. Can’t tell you how many people knew about this issue from reading The Landmark. It is so important that our local newspapers keep us informed about events that affect our community.
I also enjoy the witty columns by members of the staff. The Landmark is my go-to newspaper.
