Regarding concerns people have about Snohomish City Hall spending money on Strategies 360 to improve their image and their communication skills: Give the city council members some credit, they realize they need help in understanding they have an obligation to be more responsible to us.
Is that a waste of money? Could be.
Let’s talk about wasting our money. Here is an example of just that: The city purchased land for a future park for $700,000. The council spent this large amount of money before the public vote tax was taken. It failed. Now the property sits because money is not available to develop it. This is an example of assuming too much, thinking too little.
I’m not convinced Strategies 360 can fix city hall. Paying Strategies $13,000 could be as pointless as teaching a horse to play tennis.
