Notable Quotes (4)
because the written minutes according to the state auditor are the official record I think that is something to keep in mind
when we start getting into quoting anybody... I think that's a slippery slope
we can look at the compliance level and hold the TIFF payment or not based on the compliance
I do want to again highlight that the difference in 10 years prior to the policy being passed and the 10 years after the policy was passed... the policy has had an impact
