You think its cheap to justify made-up numbers?
An idea's outrageousness is directly proportional to the amount of PR spent on it.

The past year, the city of Wilsonville has spent more than $370,000 on public relations,
Wilsonville population 19,000 people
vs
Tualatin, no one person is in charge of public affairs and government affairs- each department head is responsible for monitoring what is needed by the public and other agencies. Tualatin population 26,054
There's a new & responsible majority on the Wilsonville city council and the Mayor will be gone after 2012.
