I understand there are serious concerns about what is being done with the police contract wrecker contracts this time also.
I have seen nothing published about this.
I understand this has now become political also, with the big boys teaming up with large companies from Chicago, etc. in order to play. And they will now be five-year contracts, instead of two year.
I wonder when the wonderful crack investigators of the Indy Red Star Rag will get on this story.

I understand that the Wayne Township trustee (who has less than three weeks left in office) is giving away $50,000 hard-earned tax dollars to Christamore House (Olgen Williams' old job).
I also understand one of the main reasons Christamore House is so hard up is that they squandered a $250,000 federal grant on the wrong things, and now have to pay it back.
I wonder when the crack investigators of the Indy Red Star Rag are going to do an expose on this matter.

Sure he reduced taxes, anyone catch Friday's paper? Read the new parking regulations and then check the penalties. It has a list of new penalties tied to parking, overtime parking, handicap parking etc. Unlawful operation of a bicycle $50, unattended bicycle $50 first offense $100 second offense and $300 third offense.
Thank goodness were safe from unattended bicycles

The folks who put Ballard over the top last time around won't be there next time around.

This afternoon WIBC reported that Ballard's budget is $100 million more per year. That doesn't sound like a 10% cut to me.

It is nearly mathematically impossible for Ballard to have given city workers a 3% raise in 2009 and reduce the budget by 10%. But they will lie and provide funny numbers and justifications and the sheep grazing throughout the city will keep munching and following the shepherds totally oblivious to the cliff ahead.
