City Council agenda item #50

From this week’s agenda; it’s also a carry-over item from last week:

50. ORDINANCE amending Ordinance #2005-1272 to provide a maximum contract amount for contracts between the City and Various Tow Company Operators for the Safe Clear Program $1,882,414.00 – Police Special Services Fund (From METRO)

TAGGED BY COUNCIL MEMBERS WISEMAN and SEKULA-GIBBS

This was Item 26 on Agenda of September 13, 2006

Almost $1.9 million…for what? Is that Metro’s contribution? Does that include the city’s share of the cost? What time frame will the money cover? Agendas are woefully inadequate information sources. How typical of government.

Regardless, it must be about time for Bob Stein to spring into action and produce another study showing how SafeClear has improved Houston’s freeways. Or Mayor White can cite another apples-to-oranges comparison of accident rates from year to year.
