Bond vote results

I am ok with the voting results. Link

The Yes win was narrow enough that I hope the council/manager will be more aware of their responsibilities toward all residents and to their official duties. I hope we get a leaner, more fiscally responsible city govt. I hope for more transparency.

I hope that neighbors continue the broader discussion and bloggers keep writing about their home city.

We saw at the city council meeting last night that we will not be getting a leaner more fiscally responsible government, and as for transparency; forget it. The doctor who spoke about keffler's windfall (provided by slagel), was blown off by slagel. slagel offered to speak with him in private. The same suggestion was given to me, when I asked a question. When slagel called me, and asked to meet, I told him I asked the question in public and wanted it answered in public. If this city council and the management, were not trying to hide something, all questions asked during a council meeting would be answered in public.
