I guess Ms. Keith and I have a different definition of the word 'great'.

The Council is a bunch of self-serving hypocrites who hire and retain City executives who are just as bad.

How much money did the city spend for the room and refreshments at the Stanford Park?

The Chamber of Commerce sponsored the event with a no-host bar. On another thread Web Link , Heyward Robinson pointed out that Council Chambers were used in years past. If Heyward is the only person that remembers this, the event was obviously not very memorable.
