With millions of dollars looking in the face of aldermen, some wondered how the city was going to handle funding the projects. At this particular meeting, how precisely the city would pay for them wasn’t detailed.
“The public needs to know how much and how we are spending the money,” At-Large Alderman Ann Petersen said. “This is something that we need to talk about. Maybe I am the only one who cares about how much debt I am having.”
Petersen said she was aggravated about not discussing it in complete detail at the October work session. Though, the city said it would bring it back up at the Budget and Finance Committee and have an additional work session.
“Everyone has put in a lot of effort,” Mayor Ken Moore said. “Everyone is concerned about it. That’s our job.”
