I'm a huge movie, music, and mapping nerd. And I guess I also like alliteration.
If you enjoy laughing & appreciating life, send a message!

Thoughts?

When I go out dancing, the last band I want to listen to is Pink Floyd. And yet they have an album called "A Collection of Great Dance Songs." Are they stupid?

Public Safety (police + fire + emergency) is the largest component of the general fund, slated for $462 million in unrestricted funds in proposed 25-26 budget, or 57 percent of the general fund. This is an increase from $445 million in 24-25 budget.
If the police "staffing crisis" is real despite receiving nearly three-fifths of the city's general fund, what would be the appropriate mark to have a functional police department for a city with a population of 630,000?
Two-thirds? 75 percent? All of the general funds?

Can anyone explain like I'm five.
It's not as if the Moda Center is one of the city's largest polluters or sources of heat emissions or anything like that.
In fact, in 2019 it became the NBA's first arena to achieve LEED Platinum status, and all ready offsets 100% of its annual electricity and natural gas usage. The Moda Center has an Energy Star score of 80 and uses LED lighting and retro-commissioned HVAC systems to reduce overall energy load.
If these systems all ready exist, what is the purpose of using PCEF funds for a venue that is recognized as a global leader in sustainability within the sports and entertainment industry.
PCEF was developed by marginalized communities and conservationists to address those populations that have borne a disproportionate amount of the negative impacts of climate change, not to pass a one-percent surcharge on large multinational corporations to then turn around and provide that money to a billion-dollar basketball franchise. I mean, there's cynicism but wow, this just takes the cake!
