Do you think Brainerd will reduce 2016 spending by $5.8 million to pay this back?

Property owners will have to pay for the excesses, and it won&#39;t be the powerful and mighty. This is Indiana. That&#39;s not how we do things here.

He also blamed the shortfall on his own water and sewer utilities missing a $1.2M PILOT payment. Sounds like water and sewer rates need to go up to pay for more Paladiums and roundabouts.

Why must taxpayers continue to write paychecks for pretty much nothing?<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-52261733328457530922015-12-14T19:32:27.926-05:002015-12-14T19:32:27.926-05:00Barnes &amp; Thornburg to the rescue!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
