And don't forget, the city manager wants to fund a costly shiny new building using the general fund.  This idea will undermined city services (i.e.. libraries, pools, Choots, etc..) which could lead to more property taxes of levies, such as the 2015 library levy.  More property taxes will make housing LESS affordable, even for low income renters.  Yet the city claims they are trying to make housing more affordable.  It just doesn't add-up.
