City does not pay

THe fireworks show is a project of the Fraternal Order of Police. They raise the money through a series of activities and through citizen donations. The EMT people do stand-by as they do for other large gatherings. There are officers offered, in the past, traffic control. The need for that has diminished with the competition from the strother and Casino displays.

On the other hand, the money for the cookie sales has been an outstanding token of citizen response for the problem presented to the community by the water Czar.

The question would be why does the water Czar have money for remodeling offices inside City Hall when he is saying that without those outrageous rates and fees the department will submerge?

Why did the city spend money on fire works with all the money troubles from lost money non-collections on water bills. I think they should spend are money more wisely than to have it go up in smoke!!!!!!!!
