The other is highly paid to do very little actual planning. How can anyone justify the big expense of a planning dept? So very little is being built. Are we just keeping them around on standby? Just in case we're deluged with projects? Ridiculous waste of money. Farm it out and pay as we go. Saved a lot of money faring out the city attorney.

HMB has a great idea re outsourcing their planning department. They have projects in the pipeline and if they don't need an in-house planning dept, we sure as hell don't. We should cut it immediately and contract out what little of these planning functions we actually need when we need them.
