Don’t delete that email from your mother
l3wis Sometimes she sends you some cool stuff (even if I am still mad about the text and driving casualty photos you sent me, still have nightmares).

Our City Attorney, Loop-Hole David Fiddle-Faddle, now acting as the city council’s class clown

Usually when I read the city council agenda I have a bit of concern, but David couldn’t resist to add a little humor into the agenda this week by putting in this paragraph (twice). I wonder if he also made eight metal disclaimer signs the city councilors could put on their vehicles?
An $8.8 Million dollar road project on the consent agenda?
So last week we had some hay about increasing the price of the indoor pool $4 million, and rightfully so, so this week we decide to throw an important street project, valued at almost $9 million in the consent agenda? Huh? (Item #1)
Hey, I’m all for spending money on streets AND this might have already been budgeted, but could we at least pull this item out of the toilet paper and paper clip funding agenda so we can have some discussion and explanation for what we are going to be doing for 24 city blocks!?
Jackass quote(s) of the day
Gotta hand it to Dan,
“As far as the opponents claiming it’s a hardship, I think that doesn’t really hold water. You still can get ballot measures done. You have to gather a few extra signatures,” Lederman said.
That’s about as rich as Pat Powers saying he actually ‘worked’ in Pierre;
Having worked in the State Capitol Complex for a good number of years,
Yeah, worked at selling bumper stickers and eating cheeseburgers. What a waste of tax dollars, just like Mr. Lederman.
