The city council will hold a work session tonight to discuss the city’s default topic of this and all other millennia, the monetary impact of effluence, i.e., the sewers.
In this case, it’s all about sewer rates, and what Georgetown should be expected to pay.
Speaking of misspent EDIT monies, does anyone (Dan Coffey? Jeff Gahan?) have a current estimate as to how many economic development dollars are wasted on politically-motivated sewer rate subsidies in New Albany?
Doesn’t Georgetown have economic development monies that it might merrily flush downhill in similar fashion? If so, couldn’t the town use those funds to subsidize its own rate payers by turning over the cash to New Albany, where these nickels and dimes could join our own misused EDIT proceeds in not being used for economic development, but rather as de facto provender for future mayoral campaigns on the part of current councilmen?
That’s a need, not a want — right, Mr. Price? And we’d be getting twice the non-bang, non-development for our bucks that way, wouldn’t we?
It’s just a thought.
