“ . . . supports spending $730,000 to add positions in the city’s new Department of Land Management . . .”  Wow!  That’s quite a bit larger than I expected.  I raised concerns about additional costs for this department when it was being discussed by the charter commission.  Several commissioners stated that the new department would pull staff from other departments and that there wouldn’t be an increase in costs.  

I wonder how much the other amendments are going to cost us.
