Council Delays Financing IV

Breaking News: BT Business Plan Totals 7 Pages

Well I missed the dramatic conclusion of the big city council meeting. Marrisa Caldwell walked past channel 17's camera and it suddenly went black. It seemed like she might have kicked a cord out of place or something.

Just before that the administration distributed its confidential written documentation to the council. That disbursement was to have happened in executive session, but the council was tired so they opted to take it and go.

As a consequence the public now knows that what was distributed were two separate pro formas which taken together fit on about seven sheets of paper.

The administration just isn't going to give councilors all the information they asked for. If councilors don't like it, they can vote to kill BT. See my previous post for thoughts on how likely that is.

Note to councilor Adrian- You may share those pro formas with your caucus's staff attorney. I say it's ok.

  1. Just so you know, Haik, Channel 17 ran out of tape. I didn't have anything to do with it going black.

  2. I assure everyone reading this that NO councilor was the reason for the channel 17 camera going out at the meeting.

  3. Let's not make a big deal out of this folks. I mean if marrisa disconnected the camera- if she didn't disconnect the camera- what's the difference? At the end of the day people care about good public policy. Right?

    C'mon. I'm just teasing. Get a sense of humor.
