Local government is also feeling the pinch of lagging local revenue and federal budget cuts. City government obviously can't cure most of these problems. Still, there are many s things the City Council can do to help its hard-pressed residents many ' of which it has neglected to do,' or has done poorly. For example, the Council this year repealed its policy of having the City Attorney examine utility rate increase requests and oppose them where warranted. Therefore, 1 support: :- Again, requiring the City Attorney to intervene in the rate increase requests of Duke Power and other utilities. Equal water-sewer rates for residential and institutional customers for years big users have received special low rates at the expense of the average homeowner and renter. Tough city bargaining for improved cable TV service. In Raleigh, Chapel Hill, and many other cities residents receive many more channels and other services for their money than we do in Durham. To insure efficient, concerned manage ment of city government, require top city officials, such as the city manager and department heads to live in the city. It's true the city can't do everything for every ImkIv. But we neeel a Council that at least does right those things it can and must do.
