Title: Take home cars!
Post by: T-town girl on January 29, 2010, 05:26:53 PM
I am back to this - the Tulsa Police finally offered to give up their cars that are parked outside of Tulsa over a month ago - why did Mayor Bartlett just now sign off on the agreement? That agreement was made before this last round of talks - we could of been saving money for over a month - whats up with that?

He's had this sitting on his desk for almost 6 weeks.  Had he signed off on this agreement six weeks ago, it could have saved a couple more jobs.  Word is, councilors got to him and demanded his sign the agreement.

Remember, it's not about the money.  Never has been.

Your right!!! We lost some really good Police officers today and they are gone. OKC, Dallas, Arlington has already offered them jobs - we now have to start over down the road with new academys and that will cost over a million bucks. Its a shame but your right - its not about saving money - its about the Bartlett / Simonson agenda and Tulsa is going to pay for this for a long time!
