I apologize for the lack of posts lately but the City budget process is consuming all my free time.  The process from here on out proceeds at a somewhat more stately pace but last week was just brutal.  I’ll see if I can’t get something meaningful put together this week.

There is a public hearing on the proposed budget Monday the 12th at 7:30 at City Hall.  If you have something to say, we want to hear it.  If nobody shows up (which isn’t uncommon), we’ll proceed using our own discretion.  Oh, and for everyone out there that thinks their voice won’t make a difference, you are wrong.  Dead wrong.

Case in point: there’s a little road called Foster drive.  The City wants to close this road.  It was brought to a public hearing so we could get it moving along.  Citizens turned out and as a result, the road will stay open for some time to come.  If you have an opinion on the budget, you owe it to your City and yourself to turn out and voice it.
