      <![CDATA[If this measure gains momentum, can we make sure that the ordinance is adjusted annually to CPI (Inflation)? Many sunshine ordinances in other jurisdictions have been pegged for years (and decades: I'm looking at you, Ontario) at a particular income level even though inflation increases salaries and the cost of living.<br>
<br>
Remember: sunshine ordinances do not exist for us to quietly heap scorn on our neighbours.They exist to to help up keep an eye on public spending.

Do you get good bounce with those leaps? Such big assumptions.

      <![CDATA[Now that we are opening up the vaults at city hall and reveling all, I am wondering if the name of the bozo who forgot or neglected to order fuel for the standby generators in the brand new sewage treatment plant will ever be made known as well as his salary, benefits, and pension accrual. You see diesel generators will not run without diesel fuel, if the back up diesel does not run, well in no time the place if full of sh*it, the same sh*it that the mayor, the council, the engineering department, and the so called inspectors tried to shove down the throats of the taxpaying public.

You're in for a bit of a shock if you think there's a massive amount of City employees making over $100,000. That's simply public perception that if you work for the city you make loads of money.
