		<description><![CDATA[February 6, 2010&#8230;  Taxpayers continue to pay dearly for the run-over costs from Gateway. Cuyahoga County sent a check of $2,493,426.93 but that was only a small portion of tax funds that now total far more than $100 million paid for bond borrowings in the 1990s. Payments last year put the cost over $100 million; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[November 18, 2009&#8230; I find the way MMPI bills Cuyahoga County for its monthly “fee” an example of bad management taken to extreme. The billings tell the County nothing of what MMPI does for its healthy fee. Here’s what the entire “invoice” from MMPI says as a description of what it did for $333,333.33 – [...]]]></description>
