During the Nov. 7 city council meeting, it was interesting to observe the mayor and her council colleague's production for support of their gymnasium. Did anyone else miss the cheerleaders, song girls and pompoms? Are skits performed by children not yet in their teens suitable for a city council meeting? Did anyone else notice that about 50 percent of those in the three-ring circus were not of voting age nor taxpayers? Wasn't it interesting to see Capistrano USD Trustee Marlene Draper (hopefully, soon to be recalled) making statements that two councilmen questioned? Wasn't it fun to listen to as she tried to continue speaking without ever answering the questions asked of her by the two councilmen? It was gratifying that we have three council members who are more fiscally responsible than the other two supporting the gymnasium, regardless of whether the proposed cost is $1.5 million or $5 million. Do the mayor and the councilman supporting the gymnasium handle their own financial matters in this way, where costs can vary from $1.5 million to $5 million? It was most interesting to watch as they increased the amount without batting an eye. Bevery Cruse |
