Police using hidden cameras for law enforcement
- with probable cause in a given location, such as repeat

Without probable cause they should not be used. Lt. Stevens needs
some "re-education" about a government camera being the same as a
private camera in a store. |

not on the "debt" agenda when the 2004 bond was passed,

Parker Group representative says
most local jobs not leaving, just top HQ jobs. 300 new jobs
moving from the Northeast to Dallas instead of to Lubbock -
see LEDA story below. |
|
|
Claim:
Mayor Miller ordered LEDA to end talks with Parker Group on
bringing 300 jobs to Lubbock from new company just
purchased.
John Barr, attorney for the Parker Group, confirmed in a
discussion with Pratt on Texas that Ted Parker had been in
negotiations with the Lubbock Economic Development Alliance
which were summarily terminated by
LEDA.
Barr says that his recollection is that LEDA chief Gary
Lawrence told his law firm that Mayor Miller had directed
him to stop all work with the Parker Group. Remember, this
action has nothing to do with the City's insurance deal -
nothing related to that relates to this other than Mayor
Miller himself. Attempts to reach Gary Lawrence for comment
have failed as we have been told he is "out
of town/state" - apparently they are not sure! |

- there is only one problem with this otherwise reasonable
position. There is nothing forcing LP&L to build reserves as
they can use retained earnings for capital spending
endlessly which essentially would be a utility being
taxpayer subsidized. Xcel is paying its Franchise fees and
property taxes, LP&L must begin paying as well or be sold to
private ownership. |
