Warming up for the coming budget marathon

Jennifer Davis has a wrap up of last night' Peoria City Council meeting, focusing on the city's 2006 budget. And she's Jennifer Peryam* has a story about cute kids who won a fire prevention poster contest. Seems there have been a lot of proclamations recently that bring cute kids to the council floor. A conspiracy? Hmmmmm.

Dave Dahl has a stort story on the budget up at the WMBD site. Nothing on his blog though. Well, there will be plenty of opportunities for all of us to write about it. This process is going to take a looooooooong time and it looks to be a nasty fight over a bunch of little things.

*Oops. My mistake. I saw the first name and didn't notice the last.
