November 13, 2024
The Century Town Council recently approved and a $500 stipend for some r some employees.
The council voted to approve one-time $500 stipend payments to eligible employees “in recognition of their contributions during the Town’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.”

“The Century Town Council recently approved and a $500 stipend for some r some employees…….”
Is the “Century Town Council” appointed by someone or voted on by the people?
Ridiculous use of funds from a city that has financial troubles.
Another way to give out more money the town don’t have charge alot of people thousands of dollars on water bills and some don’t even pay one just keep giving money away they don’t have. Just a bunch of crooks out there and our town people must not care because they do absolutely nothing to make changes
Is Gomez and all of city councils included?
Bet they are!
