POST A COMMENT
Creighton then and now
August budget study session (from northcoastnews.com archives): “Dave Creighton just said, to the department heads present (Mike Styner, Police/Fire; Ken Lanfear, Public Works; latecomer Ken Mercer, Convention Center): “This is going to be the hardest budget that staff has ever gone through. I’m going to nail you guys for every single dime. This budget will be council driven, not staff-driven
“I don’t feel in the last few years we have done a very good job in budgeting . . .
“I believe it’s about time we took control of the budget and decide where the money is going.”
Yesterday’s budget study session: Creighton expressed satisfaction that “we have a balanced budget.” He offered few, if any, objections, or requests for details from department heads.
Figures that one of the many city council people would talk a big talk but when it comes down to actually doing the work they squirm away………
Must be the midterm correction!!! Drink the Kool-Aid. Did you see the line item for the “professional services” of a hypnotists?
And this guy has been a council member for how long? We are getting more of the same old stuff. The lambs are being led to slaughter by the Shepherd(s). How sad.
