Today is the day
In a matter of hours, City Council will receive the long awaited Decosimo report. Council will receive the report two weeks later than originally intended. The original date of May 7 was canceled because the accountant heading up the report had family issues.
The meeting will start at 5:30 p.m. in council chambers. City Manager Mark Brandenburger expects a packed house of curious parties and members of the police and fire departments. The report is expected to suggest cuts in the general fund, which pays for police and fire department salaries.
Also, in the balance could be the fate of the city’s parks and streets. The maintenance for both come out of the city’s general fund. Though, no action is intended on the report tonight.
Stay tuned to see how it goes.

It seems that Maintenance is a word that the Hamilton city fathers lack a accurate understanding of. A virtual total lack of adequate maintenance of parks, streets, utilities , swimming pools and I,m certain other areas as well have created the mess they find themselves in now. And who will be blamed , who will bear the cost of repair or replacing ? You will Mr and Mrs Tax payer.
