UWT Land Deal Gets City's Attention
So it appears this little story about 6.1 acres of downtown land is getting some attention. The TNT had two separate columns on the deal:
Council knew little of UWT land deal – The News Tribune
City should keep neighborhood informed of plan – The News Tribune
Wasn’t it Phelps, Corpuz, and friends that used to hang at the Parkway and share a few beers? Should we be surprised that business occurred outside of city hall in this city?

A city with a population under 200,000, and with only 3,000 city employees needs to spend $776,000.00 on “office supplies?” That’s an average of more than $200 worth of supplies for every city employee!
I’ll bet if the council put out a call for Tacomans to donate office supplies they’d be up to their ears in free rubber bands and paper clips.
But of course the city council never met a spending resolution that they didn’t agree with. The resolution was unanimously adopted:
“without comment.”
