Editor's Comment: The meeting was comprehensive and I certainly learned a bit more about the cost components of Public Safety. I was disapointed that the police audit has not yet been released as well as the fire audit not really even being started. If one is to objectively look at the cost of what it should be to run public safety then an objective thrid party could give the City Council and Mayor's Office valuable information as to what shold be expected. Without that there was very little movement in salary which is the biggest component of the Public Safety budget. ◦
