“Mayor Stoney set a goal early in his administration to secure a triple A bond rating for the city from Wall Street and the city has been told that a large pool of savings is one required element, even if it means shortchanging services.”
The number of times we hear, “We don’t have the money.” 😒 Meet the obligations for savings. That’s healthy budgeting. But when there’s a surplus, that money gotta be spent. The list of needs is long. Pick something. Child care for example, so you don’t have to build casinos.
Now, y’all can read about the rainy day fund and the spillover of money there because accounting ain’t my strong suit. But I do understand this much: the math ain’t mathing.
“One year later, the mayor adopted a new strategy as he heads into his final year: His administration produced a low projection of the surplus and then kept mum about the total after the audit was completed.” The CAO and Finance Director gave a lil prezzo and nobody said a word.
“Instead of $8.6 million as the administration projected…the audit released Tuesday found $38 million had gone unspent in the fiscal year that ended June 30, all of which is earmarked for city savings rather than addressing unmet needs.” m.richmondfreepress.com/news/2024/jan/…
No, rent shouldn’t cost this much. Groceries shouldn’t cost this much. Wages shouldn’t be this low.
After turning a streak of misfortune into a momentous achievement, Tim Campbell built a cigar room to be envied. Originally conceived as a simple smoking room, the project evolved into a six-month endeavor, resulting in a 1,800-square-foot masterpiece.bit.ly/3NLRvaF
I asked this a few years ago & learned a lot so let’s do it again. What’s an item you use regularly that’s totally worth the cost of the upgraded/fancier version? For me it’s butter, cheese, tights & towels. How about you? Feel free to name/tag your fav brands.
“Put it in Your Mouth” is a song about the importance of a healthy diet. “My Neck, My Back” is about yoga. Keep it going
I have been waiting TWO YEARS to announce this-I’m going to be on @carlahall ‘s new show, Chasing Flavor, that premieres on Max on Feb. 1! It was an honor to talk about the legacy of Black pitmasters and the birthplace of American bbq (Virginia, of course)!
Not a big shock. I didn't like it though.
The Cigar of the Year 🔥! The smoke has cleared at Cigar Aficionado headquarters, and after puffing our way through hundreds and hundreds of cigars in one blind tasting after another, we can declare a winner. #CigarOfTheYear #CigarAficionado bit.ly/3NDevbB
"VPM News reached out to Trammell by email and phone to talk about the status of maintenance projects in her district, as well as future economic development plans. Trammell declined an interview." How? What better time to hear from herrr? Tired. 🤦🏽♀️ vpm.org/news/2023-11-2…
