THE NEW BROOM
I would liko to have attend
ed the first regular meeting of
the new city council Tuesday
night but since I was a-bed
with ’flu I had to be content to
hear it VIA WKDK. I found it
very amusing. This council
seems to feel it has a mandate
to “sweep clean’’ all affairs of
the city. It never see ned to oc
cur to some of the members
that the subjects they brought
up for discussion have been
gone over and over, for years
and years, by previous councils.
As I recall, most of these
council members campaigned on
the platform of “putting econo
my” into city government, "i ei
they right off wanted to hire a
firm of “efficiency” experts to
look over city operations, not
even knowing what the cost
would be to hire such a firm.
This finally resolved into get
ting a quotation on. price before
actually hiring such a firm.
Then they wanted to r ■die'e the
revenue from parking' mep-rs

Next tins economy - minded
council authorized the e i t y
manager to go ahead and re
ceive bids for a new fire truck,
although there is no money in
the budget for one now and no
expected source of revenue for
next year unless taxes are rais
ed. This makes it seem pretty
cortain that when next tax year

will have been cut drastically in
