S. Tahoe pushes back adoption of complete 2011-12 budget
The South Lake Tahoe City Council has canceled its special budget meeting set for Sept. 27 because of all the comments and questions raised at and since the Sept. 15 meeting.
A special meeting will still be conducted Tuesday – but at 4pm. This is to pass a 31-day interim budget because the fiscal year begins Oct. 1. Here is a copy of the Sept. 27 agenda.
The 2011-12 budget is tentatively set to be passed Oct. 11 at 6pm.
The whole district a set bag in case you haven’t noticed.
We should be axing council members, not workers. Here’s some urgent items that should be added to the agenda:
1. Resignation and apology from Councilman Bruce Grego for illegally retaining $937 of public money — despite a Grand Jury finding that this was an illegal transaction.
2. Resignation and apology from Councilman Tom Davis for bankrupting the city through failed redevelopment and giving Heavenly a free ride on taxes.
3. Resignation and apology from Mayor Hal Cole for failing to obtain a completion bond on the convention center, resulting in the disastrous creation of the Hal Cole Memorial Crater.
Amen, Steve!
Why doesn’t the Grand Jury attend one of these meetings to see how Council railroads their own agenda in the face of the citizenry?
Amen Steve!
I wonder how it is the Grand Jury can have such an evaluation on our City and their are no repercussions beyond our Council Members shrugging and carrying on with their collective shenanigans.
Toss the lot of them out and start over.
