Hear ye: Economy hurting local governments, too
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Town criers
Wall Street’s economic roller coaster is affecting local governments, too:
- St. Louis has delayed the bond sale for Lambert airport.
- Granite City’s bond sale was short by millions.
- Arnold is talking about garbage fees.
- St. Charles county has ordered an 8 percent cut in spending.
- The Highway Patrol is asking troopers to conserve fuel.
Birdline suggestion:
- Painting the towns red
- City hell
- Crunch time
- Taxing developments
- Hitting home
- Rough all over
Today’s Bird line: Town criers
We let our editors pick the Birdlines for Sunday and Monday. See you this afternoon, when we turn it all over to you again.
