Below is the text of a Sept. 3 mass email advisory from recently elected 7th district Councilman Roberto Uranga. Dear neighbor, Councilman Uranga's email neglects to mention a few other items. The budget for which he and his Council colleagues voted without dissent means taxpayers will get:
Is that what you want? It's fairly easy to produce a budget "surplus." Prove this yourself. Just stop buying necessary items like food and medicine for your family and at the end of the month you'll have a "surplus." How is it that other cities, from Los Angeles to Signal Hill, manage to provide their taxpayers with higher levels of police and fire services than LB? They face the same sour economy and Sacramento shenanigans. Do LB's endless excuses make LB's neighborhoods more desirable for new homeowners and more competitive for new businesses? On nearly every General Fund item, the Council can revisit the budget and make changes "on any Tuesday." We wonder if any 7th dist. Council serfs will politely but firmly inform their Councilman (who works for them not vice versa) that what he did without dissent on Sept. 2 needs to be revisited and better done in the coming weeks...and he should be among the Councilmembers who do it.
