DON QUIXOTE VS. CITY HALL When an American gets mad, he says "where's my Gun". When a Canadian gets pissed off he says "Where is my pen, I'm going to send a letter to the EDITOR". When the EDITOR won't publish his letter he sets up his own BLOG page. When I received enough support to get a Council Seat the dogma of the establishment became : "Better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside pissing in." (Only time will tell !)

Anticipated Fine Revenue underestimated in budget ?
In the 2007 budget the anticipated fine revenue for acct 216200000 Prov. Govt Revenue Sharing Grant was $394,740.
The actual amount received was $495,253 an unexpected windfall of $100,513.
The 2008 budget has been set at $402,635 which is 2% above last years budget and $92,618 below what we received last year.
In the 2007 Financial Plan was this explanation of how the Provincial Fine Revenue was distributed: 'The City's share of the $40,000,000 provincial revenue is based upon the the City's policing costs compared to all Municipalities policing costs.'

Don Quixote NOTE:
This item will be used in my Public Input re the budget input scheduled for April 14 unless I find an answer or they are corrected by council resolution prior to that date.
Remember at $160,000 per %age point the present budget deficit of 2.26% = $361,600
