[jennifer7]

Out of Control spending again Erie County
shelling out 28 Million Dollars on The Following
4 Million to make repairs to Baseball stadium
2.5 Million dollars to repair Ralpd Wilson stadium
1 million dollars to repair all high stadium
375,000 for new office furniture for ECC
14 Million for Bass Pro (more to come part of the 66 Million
7 Million for Bass Pro ( Buffalo's Share)

But they have no money for new books for the libarys
no money for election boths
no money for Sheriff Road patrols
unbeliveable

But they have no money for new books for the libarys

or enough to keep branches open (an excuse they are using)...8 out of 15 buffalo libraries are set to close, while our TAXES are going up. The libraries are going to set fees up to $1.00 per item order if your branch library does not have an item you need.
It's nothing but GIAMBRA looting the county through CONSTRUCTION $$$'s

4 Million to make repairs to Baseball stadium

= CONSTRUCTION

2.5 Million dollars to repair Ralpd Wilson stadium

= CONSTRUCTION

1 million dollars to repair all high stadium

=CONSTRUCTION

14 Million for Bass Pro

= CONSTRUCTION

closing city branches while proposing a new $2.5 MILLION Library in Tonawanda = CONSTRUCTION

GIAMBRA FURNITURE LOOTING FUND:

375,000 for new office furniture for ECC

= FURNITURE

$500,000.00 for security building furniture = FURNITURE

New library construction projects = $600,000.00 FURNITURE

Those construction lobbying groups and larger companies spend a lot of money on campaigns. Politicians have to repay them somehow.

What happens to the stadium when the Bills leave town ?
The Bills are Gone when Ralph Wilson passes away, Just
another empty stadium,

Jenn--don't ask any of them to be farsighted--that's asking too much.

Yep even if it means doing over the sod and drainage that they just did a couple years or so ago. Wasteful projects still mean CONSTRUCTION dollars at TAXPAYER expense.
