Kudos to RT for his approach to the upcoming budget. To quote Rodney King (in part), his success will depend on how well "we all get along". Given the Council's penchant for independence, as demonstrated in the recent police chief brouhaha this should make for entertaining viewing. One question, though: what does it mean that "unexpected revenue sources go through the same budget process as other revenue"? How can this be when revenue sources are often dedicated funds, for example, like the money for the Clinton cops? Barbara Nelson Burnsville
