Editor's Note - Commentor 'Jim' is not likely to be happy on this development... there is a political danger that the City/CRD could see a flood of other groups whose grant-in-aide applications were rejected and want reconsideration as well, given the precedent that Mayor Cook proposes that be set in the case of the Dry Grad 2011 Grant-in-Aide application
Update at 10:47am - Lots of discussion on this topic on the Welcome to Williams Lake Facebook page which you can read here

Editor's Note - I was a little disappointed with this column. The column itself didn't talk about what WL Council was up to. Hopefully next week, she'll return to weekly columns on what Council is up to

You are dead on there Steve.
Since when is giving taxpayers dollars to organizations that DO NOT need it OK? Since when is it OK for them to simply bank it when many organizations are in desperate need?
If they require it I have ZERO issue giving them funding...they do not need it this year PERIOD.
Funny how this is never mentioned in any of their letters in the paper or various web-sites.
When you use up you $50k in the bank then come back for more, until then have fun!
Since when does anyone tell the whole story? There is one side, the other side and then there is the truth.
