Rachel Waterman's Closing - Eden Place/College Park Candidate Forum

Oops...Rachel is out of focus, but you can definitely hear her.  Her voice boomed over the PA system last night. In her closing, she seems to suggest that the $23 million NSP grant, and others like it, can make up our city's $4 million budget deficit.  Ms. Waterman, I think the federal government would think differently about spending that money on that purpose.  The only grant that could make up a budget shortfall would involve a takeover by the State of Florida, and that would not be pleasant.  This idea came from a professional grant writer by the way.

More on the forum later.
