BUDGET AT LAST

As anticipated the Mayor's proposed budget will be submitted to Council at a Special Meeting scheduled for 7:30 Monday. This is the same time the public agenda setting session is scheduled. I am sure that the anonie anti New Dems will point out that two meetings at the same time is typical of the Council majority's "ineptness".

A conflict could be avoided if the Special was called for at 7:29 PM. The notice in Friday's Courier states " 7:30PM prior to the regularly scheduled agenda session" Much ado about nothing"at Actually it may make little difference because the preceding executive session more often than not runs up to 45 minutes after the public meeting is scheduled.

less than 5 full weeks to Nov 2 election day. We will be bombarded by negative radio and TV campaign spots for races in NY, and Conneticut. Locally Candidate Blogs and the barrage of commentaries will be the focus on the two Council races and all state or Congressional races.

Perhaps in the next few days Councilor Rivers will find time to answer questions about her votes. Perhaps we will have more information from JG about our " playboys", the New Democrats Council sponsored train trip.

Contrary to some who "anonate" to ask for clarification or answers or source material from a public figure is not badgering.
