Uh, one more thing! Let's give the Toros $36,000 while raising fees

At monday's seedy council meeting, the city manager advised council that there would be a couple of changes to the city's already overblown budget including $36,000 to the basketball Toros for their inaugural season at the Laredo Energy Arena.

This, while raising a galaxy of fees for just about every service under the sun (and moon).  Now, perhaps you can feel better that your ever-increasing bills for water/sewer, trash pickup etc., are going for a good cause- another round of subsidizing transient sports teams.  Cha-Ching!
