Bainbridge isn’t the only city to suffer a budget shocker

The year started with a gut-turning plummet for the city budget, as you may have read here.

Poulsbo, which has a smaller budget than Bainbridge, took a $1 million dive, nearly equaling Bainbridge’s.

  2. Time for government to join the ranks of taxpayers: Live within your means; and save for rainy days. Government usually fails to do both.
