Money to the wind

Dear Editor,

I have been given the reasons for the price that was given to Mr. Harris. From what I was told, the price was fair to Mr. Harris. I agree with the answer that was given me. I believe that the public should also know what took place; that should be up to the person who told me. The City Council must realize when you are spending the taxpayers' dollars, they should do it wisely and prudently.

The city of McCook pays the city manager a lot of money and the city then pays some outsider a lot of money (for something) that the local firm could have done a lot cheaper. When does it stop? It is not like money grows on trees. We the people deserve better than just throwing money in the wind.
