reported on the bankruptcy legislation now being crafted.
Mayor Leipzig requested Senator Johnson to relay to the legislators that it is not the city's
money to forgive the debt to the county; it is the public's money, however the city has been
very flexible with the county and understanding that bond holders and creditors get paid before
the city.
Councilman Harman questioned Senator Johnson regarding whether the state realizes that it
has been dipping into the city's budget to balance the state budget and was it the plan to
continue to do so.

money as they are aware of their own needs. He stated he believed there was more
openness relative to what are the responsibilities of the state government, local government
and county government.
