Heck they don't have the money now to hire the appropriate people to do the job. Leepee OuttaTown Brown spends city money on more important things, such as:

$5,000 for a class on public speaking so he can give a "State of the City Address" (and this after he had been mayor for 3 years)
An all expense paid trip to Africa for himself and his wife (visiting a sister city, so they claimed)
$15,000 (I believe) for a Welcome to Houston sign at the major airport, it has his picture and name on it, and the way it is designed it cannot be changed when he is no longer in office.
Pamphlets out of the Education Department on bettering education and indorcing higher learning.... It was filled with spelling and grammar errors.

The list is endless. Should this city survive Brown and his 3 terms, without going into bankruptcy, I will be highly surprised.

"indorcing" - I think you mean "endorsing" - better be careful who you cite "with spelling and grammar errors."
