NIMBY is better defined as "I got what I want and I am not sharing with anyone else or letting them in". Curtis Park might look at the not so very old maps... it was ugly suburban sprawl at one time....

Good to hear about the upgrade...will make a point to stop buy... I wonder if they considered doing the same with craft sodas?

The author seems to fail note the city manager said the city could fund these positions IF the police would start contributing to their pensions. Any actuarial will tell you given the lavish pension the police and fire are scheduled to receive, they need to contribute at least 25% of their salary to adequately fund their pensions. If this sounds over the top, recognize the average citizen needs to contribute 22% of his or her income to max their 401k and pay into social security... for a pension far less lavish than the police and fire will enjoy.

and these guys are doing this on the taxpayer's dime??? They still don't get it...

This all might have some credibility if it was not being orchestrated by a lawyer who makes a living shaking down the city and county. The only person to have gained from any of this is the lawyer pocketing his settlements.
