text: I do not support the majority of Trumps budget cuts. I would however like to point out that our city utility rates, electric ,water ,garbage, sewer have continued to rise despite the fact something approaching 25% of our City residents need to access these federal funds every year to keep from sitting in the dark without heat and water during the winter every year. So even though our city council knows full well many of us can't pay these ridiculous rates without assistance they raise the rates over and over and count on the government bailing out the people they represent. I wonder what the city plan is going to be if these funds are discontinued and about a quarter of our town is dirty, sitting in the cold and dark next winter ? New art downtown , another pat each other on the back feed  at the crab house, how about some attorney fees? Any of you council members need legal assistance for stupid? That ought to pep everyone up
