From the Mayor's web site: (http://www.electwilliamson.com/)
"...turning a $28.8 million deficit into a surplus of approximately
$9 million."
First, the $28.8 million deficit fund balance was a slightly exaggerated number. It was actually $26.255 million and that was as of 6/30/02. Mr. Kurtz inherited that deficit fund balance and ultimately reduced it to a $7.789 million deficit fund balance before the Don took power.
Second, the $8.915 million surplus fund balance was as of 6/30/06. We're still waiting for the number as of 6/30/07, which, based on news reports, will assuredly be lower. My bet is that if it is good news, it will be released prior to the election. If it's bad...you won't see it until after.

I don't get it?
Don drives crime up over 70 percent in 3 years. THen thinks a 60 percent drop because he finally opens the jail in an election year is going to convince people he is actually doing something about crime.
Wake up people. You don't play politics with our safety. |

How about a quick enlightenment as to how he accomplished that. |

Let's see. When you have a program that is already in place that has a track record of reducing crime! Then you STOP using it! And Crime goes up! Seems pretty apparent to me. |
