As a budget geek, I like to search the document to be able to easily round up how many city dollars will go to individual council members "pet" projects and organizations. Unfortunately, you can't do it without repeatedly hitting the "search" function and adding it up with pen and paper. To do that, you'd need to get the Excel spreadsheet -- because the formatting of the pdf document clearly looks like it was generated from Excel. But the Council's press office says it can't immediately get that spreadsheet from its Finance Division.
You know how difficult it is to email a mirosoft excel document don't you? It must take all of 15 seconds!
That being said, I have gone through the entire document and pulled those "members items" wherein discretionary funds have been allocated by our City Councilman, Eric Ulrich (C.D. 32) to various organizations so that you can see for yourselves where your money is being spent. Discretionary funding for Broad Channel organizations are highlighted in Red.
