City Council Notes Jan. 28, 2013

City Council Approves $851,046,365.00 Financial Plan
Without Any Discussion Or Input

Spends Countless Time Debating $90,000 Toilet

Brennan, Greves, Johnstone, Pattje and Anderson
Defeat Motion To Bring Report With 5% Reduction In Taxes

Councillor Kipp Wants To Review Cost Of Toilet
Councillor Pattje, Not Interested
Motion Defeated!

At first blush it looked like tonight's council meeting was going to be pretty uneventful, but I didn't realize the one holer in the Krall space was going to be brought back for reconsideration.

It would be encouraging if council demonstrated as much understanding and passion when it comes to spending $851,046,365.00 as they do when it comes to a $100,000 toilet.

In true 'tax and spend' fashion council was not interested in seeing if a local company could provide a better facility for less money as proposed by Councillors Kipp and McKay.
