Brenda Colegrove Enjoys New Digital Recorder


At a recent Council Meeting, Brenda Colegrove proudly showed off the City's new Digital Recorder. It is far more efficient and she doesn't have to stop the meeting to change tapes any longer.

There was money set aside in previous budgets for this system but it always fell short of the actual cost of purchasing one. However, because there was delays on it for years, the prices actually came down more than 100% and when Brenda started researching for a new one, it fell within the figures the City set aside and she bought it right away.

Perhaps the City shouldn't be so quick on those Developer Reimbursements too?

I guess with that math reasoning the city got it for nothing.

$5000.00(or any other figure)minus 100% equals ZERO.

Whoops! The system originally cost more than $2,000.00 and they got it for around $800.00. I wasn't thinking very well, sorry.

I guess if they had allowed ME to pay for it, it would have been 100% less.

Isn't it time for this woman to retire? She has enough dirt on the pols in this town she could retire, write a book and live large for the rest of her life. The book would surely make Oprahs book club.
