City Council Minutes: 01/07/08

The minutes from the last City Council Meeting are now available.

Hillary Clinton Toilet Bowl Buddy

Anyone up for some Taco Bell?

Council member balks at lawyer

The appointment of Elmira’s top lawyer could result in the loss of support from at least one Elmira City Council member for the city’s proposed $28.2 million budget for 2008.

There was yelling going on and one council member who wasn’t going to take it.  Pretty exciting stuff.  Sorry that every single one of you missed it (Nina excluded).

Dunkin Donuts Stabbing

Elmira police have charged nineteen year old Samantha Conkright for stabbing a Dunkin Donuts employee Tuesday morning.

I bet they get her order ight next time she goes in there though.

Elmira Proposed Budget Concerns

While many neighbors seem pleased with Elmira’s Proposed 2008 Budget, others are not happy.

I didn’t know that Nina and I were neighbors, but since we were the only non-city employees at the meeting, I guess we are.  Nina gets some good quotes in, but alas, does not work ‘ielmira.com’ into any of her conversations.

Elmira College Parking Headaches

As construction begins on a new 150 room dorm, some students and neighbors fear their parking headaches will only get worse.

Doesn’t EC want to get more land from the city for parking?   Anything they can do to apply pressure on the parking situation has got to work in their favor, no?

Donating Blood for Coffee

Give a pint of blood and get some coffee. It’s part of the Red Cross’ National Donor month.
