FrodoBaggins : I'm a pretty good judge of character, and have a couple good friends who have known him for 20+ years from his time serving in the Texas House. I could be wrong, of course. I've also read and gone over the city's budget a few times.
 
@buffaloglenn : You ever heard of that one dude they call Borris Miles? He and Turner are best buds...... snakes tend to roll with snakes and I've seen how Miles works, first hand face to face
 
He likes to use key phrases such as..... "it would be in your best interest" and " I suggest that you"
 
Pass the snake oil! 4951

I know that a couple of people were saying it wasn't going to cost us anything and to vote yes. I voted no. Money doesn't just appear. That money has to come from somewhere. At least for now Turner is saying no. 4951

@Tumu_ : Miles definitely has a checkered past - I can't speak for him or his relationship with Mayor Turner. 4951

I knew the mayor would pull some **** like this. He is about as corrupt as they come.
 
@FrodoBaggins : where did everybody think the money was going to come from? 4951

@FrodoBaggins : so did I, it was a fraud. The water bill thing is the mayor hitting an already sensitive area. Really should just lay off the people he said he would gave to lay off. 4951

@ET : I'm always amazed at how people approve spending someone else's money ("Yeah, they save us, let's give them all a raise; it won't cost anything! Those are just NUMBERS; they don't mean anything"), and then comes the sudden realization, that it's not really someone else's money. Oh ****... 4951

goldie : makes perfect sense to a tax and spend democrat. They dont live within their means because they dont have to. They'll never live withn their means. Look at every failing major city.....who runs them? Yep. Democrats.
 
@Ruger5 : So, Republicans live within their means? Emoticon That's why we have no federal budget deficits. Emoticon
 
This is an area where both sides of the aisle are equally responsible. 4951

@buffaloglenn : I remember hearing from people on here that they were just going to use the permit and fees money. Like that money was just sitting around taking up space. 4951

Mayor Turner says he won't add the $25. I don't know that I trust him. Is it a "oh I don't want to add the money but City Council is making me".. ? Or is he truly against it. 4951

In the words of the great orator Ocasio-Cortes, "you just pay for it" truly inspiring. 4951

@buffaloglenn : I can't imagine how big a document for city of this size must be... My own department's budget gives me a headache! 4951

Don't these idiots get it? They need to find another alternative.....how in the world can people on fixed incomes afford another $25 a month to their water bill? They need to learn to cut their spending.....time to vote them all out! 4951
