Quotes

"Shreveport has given us good service, we've had no problems. But this different company with new specifications and clean vehicles will be a good continuation of that process" Walker added
"...Water is life and sanitation is dignity, and unless we can ensure that our people, that our women in the villages have access to water to reduce child mortality and water borne diseases, to ensure that our young kids in the villages can be able to have access to water and imbue the difficulties and prohibition on access to education and health, we will not make progress in terms of our agenda for transformation" Minister Woods noted
"Over the last three years, the city has been working hard to increase preventative maintenance, speed emergency repairs, and improve customer service ? all while struggling to comply with unfunded federal mandates" O'Doherty said in a statement
"Blue Cross Blue Shield has been the best fit for the employees," he said. "Especially in this area. They have the best network of providers, as far as access."
