running a town is definately about money , the people running things gotta spend your money so if they don't keep up on maintaining infrastructure or are constantly cheaping-out, don't apply for & get infrastructure grants, things get too far behind. Replacing roads are expensive so they can only do so many on a rotating basis and maybe all they can do is re-fill pot holes but cheaping out on an old garbage truck and paying double the labor for 2 people @ 70K a year to ride a garbage truck looks cheaper but is it when you pay double the salary and workers get hurt lifting bins ?
we used to have the " I'm retired so i can spend more time at this job " old fucks on council/ mayor except all they did was argue about not spending money, things have gone middle or left wing for 10+ yrs and i think more shit gets done.
At the changing of the guard when the new young mayor and middle/ left town council got in there was a big party at the hilltop, leaning on the pool table my buddy Gavin said to me and I was thinking the exact same thing " Look at this place man if you set off a bomb it would take out every freak in the valley "
