Anybody else tired of City Hall's Threats?
Today, the Patriot reports on the Harrisburg budget shortfall. In one article, city budget director Lingle says:
"it's only a matter of time before vendors cut off supplies necessary to run city operations, such as the trash incinerator or the water purification plant. "
So, not only are we being threatened with lack of fire and police protection, but also with bad water. Come on, folks. Start working together. Reed must show City Council the financial information and reveal why last year's projected budget figures are off, and City Council must look at those figures, along with next year's projected budget and find a way to raise the money. That means Reed needs to unveil the budget now, not wait until November 21.

Everyone in the city should be tired of the on going issue. Why do the citizens have to be put to the task. Why is the Chief Executive Officer of the city not conducting himself as a leader. Oh, that right leadership classes was something he missed. In any case the nonsense must stop. Linda Lingle should be the first to go since she is the Budget Director for the city. Something sounds way off from where they were in the beginning of the year. How, could one be so far off what they had planned. Not to sure how they can recover totally, however, they can begin by laying out a plan that addresses the shortfalls by listing all of the things the city owns that can be sold, then they need to look at early retirement if necessary, one must be creative enough to make the changes. We are talking about a system that has limited exposure to the world, they only practice what they are told.
