Quote:
CALUMET CITY | The City Council will be asked next month to consider an ordinance that would reduce the mayor's expense account.

Mayor Michelle Markiewicz Qualkinbush said she envisions cuts in her expense allocation, including the car allowance. But Qualkinbush last week was unable to say exactly how much would be cut from the car allowance, or the expense account overall.

“I think it’s important to cut expenses wherever possible, even for myself,” Qualkinbush said.


With Hammond being in dire financial straits, how long do you think before McDermott will give up his city car? Or even Golec, for that matter?

What about the kids, George?

City Car, City Credit Card and is it two or three city salaries for Tom?

Mayoral cuts? In McDermottspeak it has a different connotation, e.g. What is the mayoral cut of festival parking receipts? What is the mayoral cut of a consulting contract? These are examples of mayoral cuts, not to be confused with the late May oral auditioning of summer interns cuts.
