This week's landfill story

Here's this week's installment of the saga of the landfill.

It's difficult to tell if the City Council is trying to cover its butt or if councillors are genuinely peeved.

Or if - as someone has suggested to me - the mayor is looking for a way out of a bad deal he felt pressured to make.

He did offer to pay for independent counsel ... which could confirm that opinion or confirm that he was right all along.

We'll see.

P.S. The editor of the Current never did post her editorial from last week, about the landfill.
