It’s your “In like a lion out like a lamb” drinking game extravaganza!

It’s March y’all! And even though we haven’t had much of a winter this year (thanks Al Gore!), lions and lambs are still on our mind. Maybe it’s because Kirby pulled this out when describing Trump last week:

2017-03-01-2

Or perhaps we just like sweet little lambs:

in-like-a-lion-out-like-a-lamb
This could end badly! Just like a county council meeting!

As always, this game is just for the chuckles. Be responsible and stay informed.Away we go:

We start at 5:00, which is not the norm,  we suspect it’s due to Billy’s whining about start times. We know he’ll shoot down the minutes, so we won’t bore you with that. How Shrelauter will act when the Finance Department asks them to extend the contract with the outside audit company is up to debate. If they don’t see the value in an outside company checking the books, let’s all encourage them to pull the Lion’s Tail.

A decision will be made concerning the rezone request for the Urbana application. The last two council meetings were devoted to this issue. You can read our coverage here and here. We are all hoping for smart, responsible growth in our fair county. We need adequate roads, schools, police, fire and rescue, libraries, and retail to make life good! Let’s toast to smart growth with our Smarty Pants cocktail. We can figure this out together!

On break until 7:00. We may hear a squeak out of Billy depending on the end time of the first part. Oh, he’s become so tiresome to us.

After the council reconvenes, there is a 2nd reading on a bill to reallocate the county recordation tax. Read all the details here.  If this is in any way, shape, or form painted as some kind of tax hike, slam back a pitcher of Red Lion.

Onto public and council member comments. Our crystal ball isn’t giving us a real clear signal this week. However, we can posit that since Billy was absent from the last meeting he’s going to have a thing or two to say. When he and the yin to his yang, start a yapping, sip on your Warm Wooly Sheep cocktail, since we all need some comfort by this stage of the meeting.
