    Only spend what you have, simple as that. Absolutely necessary projects should get done, projects that are "nice to have" should not get done. Your pension issue should not be our issue as homeowners! If you keep raising property taxes and fees for homeowners, some day you will only have students living here destroying this city! Homeowners that live in the home they own should pay less taxes than homeowners that rent out their two bedroom house to five students!
