What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A contentious meeting took place in the city of Davis when the Finance Committee questioned the administration about a potential transfer of $60,000 from a gas tax fund to the general fund. Committee Chairwoman Annie Williams asked if the restricted funds, which are legally designated for road and bridge projects, were used to meet payroll. Mayor Davis denied the transfer, stating the money was used for a project to repair Whistler Street and that the city has sufficient funds for payroll. The meeting ended abruptly when Traci Hale and two other council members walked out.
