If you feel so inclined, a quick note of thanks to Mayor Verner and the Spokane City Council may be in order as they somehow managed to increase the 2009 Human Services budget from ~$820,000 to an even $1,000,000. Given the economic climate we find ourselves in, this feat is just plain astounding.
Also, Joe Shogan, the City Council President, announced that he would forego 10% of his 2009 salary and divert it to the Human Services budget for distribution to the 2nd Harvest Food Bank. Thank you, Mr. Shogan.
