Kaye sent the text of this article in an email, but I think it's worth posting on the blog: http://www.timescall.com/Local-Story.asp?ID=3233.
City Manager Gordon Pedrow told the Council that Longmont leads Boulder County in foreclosures, commercial development is down, and the city has lost 120 primary jobs through July.
Here's a great quote from Pedrow: "If I had to give you a theme for this budget, it would be applying limited resources to address our most critical needs," Pedrow warned council members.
My question to the Council: Do those "critical needs" really include forking over money, services, and infrastructure to a land developer?
