numbers is, and undisputed

The bathroom investigations have been done and the results were that we paid EXACTLY TRIPLE what they actually cost! We did the same at the CC. Those numbers are in and undisputed. Since we have a history of paying TRIPLE the intial costs on anything and everything we build under the City Managers supervision (and I use that term loosely), the initial numbers on the new gym is 6.8 million- TRIPLE THAT and you will get an idea about what that project will actually cost- 20.4 MILLION. How will they pay for those constant and recurrent cost overruns and change orders? Raise our taxes and fees, of course! Already, the disregarding of their own variance laws has caused delays and additional expenses, and they arent even in the ground yet! This "costs are irrelevent" and "immaterial" Mayor and Council have no clue regarding the poor planning and general incompetence involved in this project, and dont seem to care, as long as their legacies are realized. They have NEVER met a cost overrun OR change order they couldt and wouldnt approve, no matter WHAT the price is! How much longer can we afford this crew? Change is coming, and necessary. Dr. Mel P.
