League City Shroud?

I applaud the backbone Councilmember Dawson displayed when she voted against League City Proud’s “offer they can’t refuse” The offer was pay us or there will be no Christmas parade. The majority of council decided to pay up with our tax dollar to fund this parade for the citizens.

Going unanswered are the details. League City Proud has thus far been unable to show the city their books and has not shown where all the “non profit” organizations money is spent. In other words they prefer to keep the people who are paying for the parade (the citizens of League City) in the dark. No transparency there. (Where have we seen this before?) They refuse to sign a contract to obligate them to reimburse the city for security expenses relating to their production. Why?

I think it’s time the city take control of city functions like this parade or at least get bids on it. There is no village fair parade and now the people who put on the Christmas Parade are putting the proverbial gun to the head of the citizens and saying Pay up or there will be no Christmas parade ! Now that is what I call exhibiting the Christmas spirit. Doesn’t that make you League City Proud ???
