Yesterday, I received the Dec. 15 Crestview News Bulletin with the article about the Crestview City Council discussing travel reimbursement.
Didn’t Ben Iannucci read the city’s budget when it was discussed and passed?
Why didn’t he know that there was no budget for travel?
The city does not need to pay $239.27 for him to spend one night in a hotel.
And as far as Charles Baugh’s comment that they need to attend all these conferences to raise the profile of Crestview, why do we care if politicians in Miami know where Crestview is?
