I still say to enter EFM now without solid government in place would or could be a mistake,we talk about those in city gov but I have spoken to a few on the city and county level and actually found some to be quite helpful and knowledgeable and could tell they really cared about the city they served,but the thing that nags me the most is they were scared,you could tell.It was almost as if they were afraid to let others around them know.
This happened at different levels from low to high so it is wide spread,,it is no surprise to you guys but to me there is something very wrong there and to make the decisions on EFM or even bankruptcy without having all the facts of what exactly is going wrong seems a bit rash although nice maybe short term and maybe even satisfying to some who would like results now and granted they are warranted but it is kinda like painting a dented car, nice paint but the dent is still there.
