City Council meeting tonight: Can free speech survive this one?

Yesterday Mayor James Garner met with City Council members in a workshop session and discussed the city's finances.

The Courier-Journal's Ben Zion Hershberg reports that during the meeting, "Council member Steve Price asked, 'If the city is in such bad shape, how come you all can go on with Scribner Place?'"

You all? Who'd that be, exactly?

As for tonight's public meeting, I'd wear a pith helmet ... if I had one.
