1/10/2008 | Dear Editor,
The Dutton St rail line has become a very contentious subject; Yass Valley Council appears to be set on removing the rail line, on the flimsy pretext that it will be safer for pedestrians.
1/10/2008 | Dear Editor,
In your report on the first meeting of the new look Yass Valley Council you mentioned the various ceremonies that accompanied its orderly transition into its new term of office.
1/10/2008 | I know much has been written about the destruction taking place in the valley beyond the railway bridge.

I must say that what is happening on the world financial scene should give us great concern. Even though we're told that Australia's economy is more secure than almost any country in the world, I can't see how we can't be affected.
24/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
I write in reference to the article in last Wednesday’s Tribune (September 17) about the Barton Highway being listed as the 25th most deadly strip of road in the world.
24/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
I refer to the article ‘MP under fire’ on page 1 of the Yass Tribune, Wednesday September 17, 2008 in which the former Mayor Nic Carmody castigated the Burrinjuck State National MP Katrina Hodgkinson for using her position as a State National Party MP to influence people to vote for Geoff Frost who promoted himself as an Independent candidate.

In your As I See It of Friday September 12, you suggested that letters to the editor be kept short.
24/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
Let me add my congratulations on the coverage that you gave to the recent Council elections.
24/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
As one of the independent candidates at Saturday September 13’s election I would like to state clearly my disappointment at Ms Hodgkinson’s involvement at the Yass polling booth.
24/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
So, INDEPENDENT candidature and Code of Conduct take on new meanings to birds of a feather in frosty weather!
19/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
As you know, 16 members of the Berinba Primary School choir auditioned successfully for the Combined Choir in the 2008 Schools Spectacular. It is a wonderful, enriching experience for these children, but it is a very costly exercise.
17/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
I was amazed at Geoff Frost’s taking of the moral high ground during the recent council election period, accusing the Greens of politicising the process.
17/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
The Yass Valley Council elections last Saturday were a very interesting experience to me personally as a first time candidate in any election and to be part of the democratic process, even at local government level, and "having a go" was very worthwhile.
12/09/2008 | Dear Editor,
I am searching for Joy Catling who attended Riverside Girls High school in 1958.
12/09/2008 | Dear Editor
The John Nichols Family Society will be holding a reunion in Tamworth over the long weekend in October 2008.
12/09/2008 | Councils and political parties don’t mix. I have no doubt that the Greens party candidates in Saturday’s election are each committed to Yass Valley.
