" What about the MAJOR omission in the mayor's speech? You know, (or maybe not,) about the council's major legal blunder? Still confused? Google a couple of contract law terms: 'specific performance' and 'detrimental reliance.' Got it yet? OK, here's wisdom: Contracts may be required, by court order, to be 'specifically performed', as written. Application? The dozens of entities with EXISTING contracts for the civic center's facilities can have a court order the chamber- to MOVE OUT, daily; so that the pre-existing contracts may be performed. Even Better: 'detrimental reliance' provides monetary damages for any expenditures done in reliance of a breached contract- to be paid by the breachor.
It's all just TOO BEAUTIFUL! remember you got the scoop first, here. (Not from the Advocate, which 'didn't have time to see me, a few minutes ago.') Who needs the funnies? The west hanson street mafia provides ENDLESS comic relief.
Oh, could you hold another meeting? Soon? PLEASE? We all need another good horse laugh. "

State of the City? Want the short version? Here goes: Taxes going up (we'll blame it on fuel costs-which effects EVERYTHING). Manager got a big raise (won't say it was by gutting PD dispatch, or internet speeds down to dial up.) Still have council dominated by the west hanson street mafia (never were going to 'represent us,' only their OWN agendas.) Still, the insider scams are rampant (most favored types get free or scandilously low prices for Community Center, Stancil park, etc.) Drainage still aint fixed. Aren't funding the expansion of the golf course to 18 holes (why? every street in town has AT LEAST 18 holes.) Tax base increased, by aggressive appraising, but raising the city tax rate and all fees anyway.
Insiders still get rediculously low property tax appraisals, that won't change- but we'll give Alan Conner a public award, every time it gets pointed out (that's how we tell YOU, that YOU don't matter). Still buying into the race track scam, never mind that it has no business, no bookings, and no prospects- it's the insider trading that really counts - right Williams? Bought into the CCIC scam, embarrased that they got caught- but no refunds for the taxpayers- hee hee.
In summary.... business was, is, and will continue to be.... AS USUAL! Save your $12 or $15- that's the scoop. My vote as follows-at ALL political levels: re-elect NOBODY. "
