Good questio Ed. IMO the same questions could be addressed to the Community Arts Council. Let's hope that answers are forthcoming.

It makes you wonder when all this waste is going to stop. Will it be when everyone gets tired of it and moves out of town? These "City Fathers" think the well is endless. What is it going to take to get someone at city hall to listen to what the majority want and not the special interest groups that each think their cause is the greatest? Let's just run city business and not give money to every Tom, Dick, and Harry that comes begging. WE CANNOT AFFORD IT!!!!!!
