What a beautiful Sunset

The Albert Lea City council did agree in February to sunset the storm water and lighting utility fees at the end of 2005. http://www.albertleatribune.com/articles/2005/02/15/news/news4.txt

Please watch, however, as technically they put a sunset on the fees, but not on the utilities themselves. The public has been promised that they will review these utilities at the end of the year and determine whether the property tax is the more appropriate location. Time will tell.

Also, this year's bonding bill is to include funding for some city projects. If these projects have been budgeted for in the city budget, will there be adjustments made to next year's budget process?
