Fees for Special Events

Penny Wise Park Foolish

I'm at a loss.  I could be wrong but it seems if our people in government would manage our money more wisely, this kind of thing wouldn't be happening.

For example.  There is a piece of property sitting vacant on 301. 
The city overpaid for the piece in the first place. 
Purchased for a deal that never happened.  
Money well spent? 
I think Not! 

I think you should be able to hold events that bring people to the city without being charged for the space.
I don't understand the excuse of processing the permits.  Aren't the employees getting paid to do a job.  Is processing permits not in their job description?
