LETTER: Victoria councilB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s priorities out of whack

VictoriaB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s mayor and council continue to blow through tax funds in a reckless manner. For example, they can find room in the budget to buy a cement ping pong table that nobody uses, to give a tax-free window for a private luxury condominium building in Victoria, and to continue building bicycle lanes on narrow streets in the James Bay area. And yet they continue to balk at providing proper increased funding for the police that will provide a safe and secure city.

And yet they continue to balk at providing proper increased funding for the police that will provide a safe and secure city.
