Emerald City 5/30/12 News Roundup

A couple of Ogden City-related news items which we're linking, just so you won't think we were "goofing off" all morning

 Sorry folks, but we've been bogged down with personal business this morning, but have now found a couple of Ogden City related news items which we're linking, just so you won't think we were "goofing off" all morning:

1) Ogden City's Crack Economic Development Team scores BIG with yet another portion of a federal grant:
We'll suppose that Ogden City officials won't be weeping tears about that old GOP meme: "Get the federal government off our backs."

2) The Ogden City Council ain't all that bad, we say, despite their chickenshit stance in the recent Ogden City water rates debacle.

In that same vein, here's something from the Standard, reporting on something that's been a long time coming, as the Ogden Fire Department sat through Godfrey Administration stinginess (reign of terror) for twelve grueling years:
We'll be keeping our fingers crossed that the Ogden City Council will remember one of its prime objectives: Making our public safety a top flight priority.

The neglect of the Ogden City Fire Department has gone on for far too long, wethinks.

And what say you, O Gentle Ones?
