In today's Daily Times Sarah Lake, (once again) proves just how big an Idiot she is by writing another article that tells half truths and sides with Mitchell and Shields.
You see, a week ago, (or so) we did an article about the increase in the City's attorney fees. We explained how they had actually under budgeted for those fees and if you looked at the average over the past several years, the fees they have proposed to increase recently, (they will vote on this tonight) are actually right in line with years past.
However, the Daily Times refuses to do their homework and instead are trying to use this as a way to make the other three council members look bad, go figure.
Of course the Daily Times makes no mention of how Shields, Comegys, Dunn, Cathcart, Smith and Tilghman got the taxpayers into such a legal mess to start with. You know, like the $1,000,000.00 liability clause in the Waste Water Treatment Plant, something unheard of in ANY business.
It is very clear, the Daily Times is simply out to smear Cohen, Campbell and Spies and that's it.

Yep. The three best council members Salisbury has seen in a decade- constantly and relentlessly smeared by that rag that fewer read every week.
Who cares what Lake thinks? We haven't forgotten that double digit tax hike thanks to Barry Tighlman, Bubba Comegys, Lynn Cathcart, Shanie Shields and Mike Dunn shoved down our throats.
If Shields and Mitchell did their homework and quit crying they would help to avoid law suits.
How's that old mall working out? The rubble still sits in a huge eyesore pile where it was ground up and is a liability to city still!
I think we need a mayor that does a lot of business here in the 'Bury, maybe then we'll see real improvement. Is Adam Roop still running for mayor?
The Daily Slime is going to be totally out of business in five years or less. Gannett is losing money all over the place and they are about to commit suicide by making all of their local papers' online sections go behind a paywall. Would you pay to read the paper online? Me neither.
Under budgeted??? There is no such thing unless it's a gimmick which in this case it is not. A budget is just that, a budget. The budget is sumitted and voted on as the budget without foot noting. To say a line item is "under budgeted" is patently bias on its face and show an utter lack of knowledge by the maker of such a statement.
Under budgeted as to the unknown costs of the on going lawsuit of the WWTP. That disaster is going to cost city taxpayers an arm and a leg for a very long time, as the city is going to lose this case.
There are SEVERAL other on going litigations that the public is yet to be privy to the information regarding those suits.
If not for the change in city attorney access, only Wilber and Ireton would have known about those other law suits. At least now, our representitives are privy to that info and have remained tight lipped regarding those suits.
It's part of breaking up that good ole boy stuff, balance of power!
