City's Web Page Hides Interesting Data

Dear Gramps:

Have you noticed that the City’s Web Page lists fewer “Contributors” to GT Days than the Blue Mt. Outlook Listed? Also note that many of the “Missing Names” either have or recently had business before the Planning Commission, or the City Council and or issues not put on the Agenda by the City Manager.

The appearance is that not only a financial audit is due for the “Contributions” but an Ethics Practices Audit. Neither the City of Grand Terrace, nor any of its Committees or Agents should be receiving money or contributions from businesses or individuals with recent, pending or future business with the City.

IF these “Donations” are truly gifts to the Citizens and not to influence the actions of Government they “Donations” should be given to Sports Teams, the Lions Club, the Women’s Club, 4H, the Scouts, or other Non Government Organizations providing services and activities in GT.
