The problem isn't that there's a lack of money, but that the money is misspent. Bossier City Council spends like crazy on non-necessary projects, then cuts police and fire and raises taxes when they're burned all the money.
They enough of a surplus in the Capital Projects fund to spend $4 Million on CNG stations, but not enough in the General Fund to pay for police and fire. Can't they just transfer the money?
This campaign exploits the police and fire to allow the City to continue to mismanage the budget.
Good job Pat, I really hope people will take this seriously and realize that this is just a renewal and is dedicated solely to fire and police.
