does the vote by the council last evening mean that aside from barrels on third avenue all that wrangling in markup went for naught? does this mean we'll have to do without the "barking dog/animal warden" program next year? who was that lone vote on the council opposed to that program? a note about state senator moe's idea to create an endowment with the budget surplus: why is it that when he talks about puuting the money toward needed areas affordable housing is never specifically mentioned? aren't we being continually told by our council that afffordable housing is a local, metro, statewide issue as well as a federal government problem? why is it when we talk about enormous surpluses in washington we never hear about putting some of the money back into hud for crumbling cities? how come this never shows up on radar screens in these places when we hear of our city's lobbying efforts at the state capitol and our mayor's great relationship with the soon to be ex-president, vp, and hud secretary? just some food for thought on a friday morning. tim connolly ward 7 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
