So your solution is to allow our recreational facilities to fall into even greater disrepair? To put off overdue infrastructure upkeep? To what end? Keep in mind that much of this money is earmarked as discretionary spending for council members' districts, not Street's programs. There are certainly ways to cut city spending and promote fiscal responsibililty, but this isn't the place to start. (Slowing the growth of fringe benefits in city contracts would be a good start IMO, not to mention PGW reform.) > Our > municipal bond rating again has gone down, which means we will now have to > pay more interest on the offering. Possibly, although it depends on whether we are also downgraded by Moody's and S&P. AFAIK, there has been no announcement from either of those two agencies. -- Matthew Snyder Philadelphia, PA ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
