[Grovenet] A honking big increase in the City fees . . . . .

[Steven]

I sure wish that there was a notice.
But I did give my opinion to a few councelors. I felt it was possibly a good
thing if it was to police bad businesses.
Don't feel bad Bob. As I read the change, I will be hit multiple times. This
I would have protested if I had known of the wording.
All in all, goverment at work to screw things up. Input from the public, not
welcome or needed.

You know . . . you're right!

But being serious, I do wonder why no notice was sent out to FG business
owners about the proposal being discussed this evening.  My wife never
received notice and when we were working out at Power House Gym we were
talking to the manager of Frye's who, after hearing about the meeting agenda
item, was also puzzled as to why Frye's never received notification.

I know common sense and government can oftentimes be like same pole magnets,
but I have to believe someone in our city government would be knowledgeable
enough to ask the question of, "Have we informed business owners we'll be
discussing this proposal?  We haven't?  Let's hold off discussion until
after all have first been informed."  This is why I always say that
99.99999% of all problems are due to either lack of communication,
miscommunication, or the listening party misinterpreted the communication.
I'll take a SWAG that their was a lack of complete communication, i.e. the
agenda was published but nobody went the extra mile to inform the most
affected party, that being biz owners.  It would most certainly be very good
to know.

Can't wait to hear what was discussed.

Hey Allen, that sounds like one of President Bush's speeches on Iraq!
