First, before the City asks for more money, it should explain what happened to the 2.5-5 MILLION dollars of "planning" for a non-existent City Hall. Once that is done, it can then explain why there was no oversight of the huge Capstone project, allowing the contractors to ignore the contracted setbacks and sidewalk improvements. 
Once those 2 conditions are met, let the City next explain why the 10+ MILLION dollar increase in property tax revenues over the past several years won't cover the modest increase in park needs. 
The perception by many residents is that there is criminal wrongdoing, not just garden-variety shenanigans, going on in our city management. To this point, NO one has the responsibility to DEMAND an accounting from the city manager Ruiz. Meanwhile, he's in the process of paying more consultants (really, he is) to make suggestions regarding City Hall. You can't make this stuff up.
