The Explorer reports that we can expect a $2.14 million budget deficit.
Is this a surprise to anyone? Maybe to Mayor Loomis, Vice Mayor Carter & Council Member Kunisch, but they should have known better.
We all knew state revenues were being curtailed dramatically. We all knew our sales tax revenue has diminished. We all knew the bed tax revenue was going to be less than originally projected.
Still that didn't stop these three from voting to "raid" our contingency fund to keep every cop on the payroll.
That didn't stop these three from giving our precious funds to the likes of TREO, GOVAC & Critical Path to the tune of $277K+.
These motions passed, along with others, with the able assistance of Ms. Abbott who recently resigned her position.
If the other three don't resign, they certainly should be voted out of office.(As of now Loomis & Carter plan on running in 2010)
