One Last Metro Council Push for "Infrastructure" Earmarks, Part IV

According to the Metro Council Clerk's Office, here are the 23 previously unnamed (at least for public consumption) "Late Resolutions" from last night requesting Metro Council Discretionary Funds (requests for non-profit earmarks not addressed to public infrastructure are in red letters):

• $1,500 to the Nashville Adult Literacy Council (Vivian Wilhoite)
• $1,500 to the Metropolitan Information Technology Services Department (Wilhoite)
• $1,650 to Metro Nashville Public Works (Parker Toler, Sam Coleman)
• $2,000 to the Metropolitan Development and Housing Agency (Erik Cole)
• $2,000 to the Metropolitan Historical Commission (Wilhoite)

• $25,000 to Metro Nashville Public Works (Greg Adkins)
• $35,750 to NEON, North Edgefield Organized Neighbors (Murray, Rip Ryman)

These resolutions were passed in one lump without consideration or discussion.
Obviously, there are a good number of requests here that address public infrastructure and services (reportedly, those are more likely to get processed before the June 30 deadline). It is really too bad that public programs have not been at least getting funds at this clip the whole year.
