Cable Commission - No Decision for Pmt of Electronic Sign
Although Mayor Brown didn't identify that the resolution to accept a bid must be tabled as the Cable Commission did not have a quorum to render a decision. Flash back to A couple months back: Pat Roberts asked where the money was coming from to pay for the $75k electronic sign. Mayor Brown's response was that we are in a budget crises and the bid process was just to see what it would cost. Snap back to today: Duchane has been trying to nudge the cable commission to pay for this as the DDA cannot. Don't forget that there was a substantial amount of $$$ approved for new cable equipment. We said then and say now..... all this whining over LP in a budget crises yet we have money for Electronic Signs; $27,500 pay raise for Duchane; Hiring ERI replacement workers at much higher salaries... Again, what is in the City Hall drinking water???

Maybe Mayor Brown is jealous that Kwame made the list for worst Mayors. I think he is working extra hard to gain a spot on the list too. That is the only explanation I can come up with for the decisions Brown has been making.

Hmmm.... the cable commission has two new members: John Hall who is assuming the remainder of another member's term that expires Jan 1, 2007 and Matt Werling (CPW) who is newly appointed and whose term expires on Jan 1 2008. Will Council get that new $75k electronic sign? Or are the cable commissioners going to stand by the NO vote? |

Re: Cable Commission - No Decision for Pmt of Electronic Sign
Has anyone heard any updates to this? Last I heard, Cable Commission did NOT approve the money to buy this sign. |
