"This is a major success story – it may not be perfect, but it is good…” Chairman Walberg
Board Member Pat Mattison remarked that the draft budget includes an increase in the General Fund from an estimated fiscal year 2010 amount of about $12.9 million, to a fiscal year 2011 budget amount of $13.3 million, and said this amounts to a 3 percent spending increase, not a cut.
Later, toward the end of the meeting, Johnson asked for a few minutes to make a comment to the board. In his remarks, Johnson acknowledged that the board is a body with "differing opinions," and that it is a good thing. However, Johnson went on to say that when certain members "take shots" at other board members "under the guise of keeping residents informed, I personally take offense."
