While Indianola has changed, some things have stayed the same which sometimes frustrates Kelley. There are issues that come before the city council that were issues 100 years ago, and there are things that will make a difference now or 25 years from now. Kelley tries to look at change philosophically. It's much easier to be critical of what you are than it is to decide what you are going to become. It's easy to find out what people are against but to find out what they're in support of is difficult.
Any idea has a tipping point-the point at which they'll accept it.
As mayor, one of my functions is to funnel ideas and at some point, people tip.
