Well, the WAR IS ON!!!!
"...“It’s an ultimatum everyone has been handed,” Morrissey said. “It’s an economic ultimatum, so the word might absolutely be appropriate.”....Ald. Carl Wasco, D-4, said he is concerned because the city intends to keep the share of property taxes that had been for garbage to spend on other expenses....Wasco said aldermen have sought alternatives or a compromise on the fee increase and layoffs, but nothing has come of those requests. ... “The answer we have gotten (from the mayor) is that, ‘If I have to, I’ll lay them off.’ We don’t have a choice, and if we don’t give him the $3, he will lay them off,” Wasco said. “It sounds to me like it’s his way or the highway.”..."
Gee, makes me wonder if Wasco's been paying attention to the last 5 years of LarryRule...
LarryBoy's put his mark (and thousands upon thousands of TAX DOLLARS) on every pet project he's unveiled, from that ridiculous city logo, n Center, Adam Smith, Cyndie Hall, Code Enforcement "cops" with the top of line wifi notebook computers,, Blackberrys for every two-bit supervisor, buying a hockey team, overspending on upgrades to the still un-finished MetroCentre,tearing out the Mall in the middle of a recession, MILLIONS of dollars thrown at "developers" for more unfinished downtown hip,urban downtown lofts,............sheesh where DID all the money go??
Those greedy unions...
