Did You Know #12

WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS....
The Mayor told the taxpayers that this annexation would be “no cost to the City”.  Really?
Did you know that already, the City Attorney’s office has racked up over $32,000 in attorney’s fees for work performed in support of the Refuge Annexation, and the City Attorney continues to spend at the rate of $1,500 to $2,000 per month? 
Compare the City’s definition of cost to that of ours.  The City considers it a cost when doing some type of construction for a project like this annexation, but they do not consider it a cost when it is spent by their City Attorney for his services, or other staff members who are embroiled in this project.
Regardless of how they report it in their books, the burden of these costs fall directly onto our shoulders as taxpayers. 
So how much is this annexation really costing us?
