Budget Chair appreciates "conservative leanings"

Budget Committee Chairman Mike Ecke supports the newly appointed Councilman, Sheldon Dill, because of how the budget will benefit from his "conservative leanings:"

If school funding is cut by $2,000,000 (5,000 kids x $400/kid)... will our "conservative" Budget Chair actually cut spending... or will he be looking to simply pass along a huge tax increase?

Regardless, I'm confident that Budget Committee member Tom Ruocco's fiscally conservative voice will be heard.
