S. Fla. officials are going to conventions on your dime
Although the national mayors convention was only 34 miles from his home, Lauderhill Mayor Richard Kaplan decided it would be too difficult to commute. So he billed taxpayers $995 to stay five nights in June at the four-star InterContinental Miami hotel.

:evil:
Why is it that it's OK for City workers to make the commute but not the Mayor? :x Is that to far to drive in one day? If so then maybe he should retire? We can't even take any extra classes or get a contract because of budget cuts. :roll:
