Tonight's City Council meeting should be quick and fairly painless. The only item on the agenda is the appropriation of the $250,000 in riverboat funds for future use.
I must agree with Kay Garry on this one. She was quoted in the "Tribune" as saying that it would take 40 to 50 days to get the appropriation approved and certified if the council found a need for these funds. And we all know they will.
This money is not going anywhere, I don't see why 4 members of the council Mr. Coffey, Mr. Caesar, Mr. Price, and Mr. Gahan voted against the appropriation plan. It just seems logical that the funds be ready and waiting for future projects. Every project must be voted on anyway.
I guess we will just have to wait and see how it goes tonight. See you there.

No disburstment shall be made without an appropriation therefore unless specifically authorized by law.
Is the Police Department out of gas? What do they need the $250,000for?
Smoking education program financing?
How many vacations does England need? I hear he's on vacation again, Alaska I hear. Guess his pockets are to full.
Too funny!
Why not just kick the smoking ban to the curb?
Shirley: Sorry, but, I disagree with you on your support for additional Riverboat Funds without a specific purpose.
ACCOUNTABILITY is very important in
our City finances. They need to say
what they are planning to spend the money for. What is their hidden agenda for this money ?
