Strib's on it: Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak decided Tuesday to reimburse taxpayers $10,000 for the glossy newsletter he sent at a cost of $42,556 to all city residents at the start of an election year.
His announcement came four hours after a city ethics panel determined Rybak wasn't required to pay the city for the newsletter because the laws are ambiguous. "I will hold myself to a higher standard by reimbursing the City $10,000, which is half of the production cost of the newsletter," the mayor said in a written statement.
