Making Sense Of A Complicated Council

Memphis city council approves operating budget
I covered yet another marathon Memphis City Council concerning the budget.  I've never seen a group of people who take so long to make decisions.  Multiple votes taken, various amendments struck down.. Until finally an operating budget was passed. I had about 15 minutes to throw something together.  Fortunately, CAO George Little offered to do a live interview.  It really set apart what we did from the competition and added insight.
