Bill Jaques: Nice to see all that surplus money laying around
Re “Modesto weighs giving nonprofit $900,000” (Page 1A, March 14): I was pleased to see that we have found a surplus of $762,000 to help fund the $900,000 that we need to send to Modesto Neighborhoods, Inc. I’m sure we’ll be able to soon find a few more surplus dollars to fund police officers, fix a pothole or two and maybe even do another bike lane. We sure are fortunate to live in a city with such findable surpluses.
