WILL HE OR WON’T HE?
I’m hearing conflicting signals this afternoon over whether House Ways and Means Chairman Bill Crawford will hear SB 280, Marion County Government Consolidation. A House Democratic spokesman says it is on the calender for a hearing tomorrow at 9 a.m.
However, I’m hearing that Crawford is mad as hell over Mayor Greg Ballard’s testimony yesterday before the committee and as of two this afternoon told SB 280 proponents the bill was getting pulled.
So will he or won’t he hear government reform geared at promoting efficiency and saving the taxpayers money in the long run? I guess we’ll know first thing in the morning.
