Impact analysis
While no direct price tag was mentioned, secret budget talks mean your tax dollars could be spent without anyone checking their work.
Everyday residents benefit because this ruling forces the city to keep its budget talks out in the open where everyone can watch.
Council members who wanted to dodge public scrutiny are definitely squirming, but everyday folks aren't losing out here.
