• City Council President Jack Webb announced Monday that three council members will serve on an ad hoc committee to review budget savings for the 2011-12 fiscal year. Stephen Joost will chair the committee, which also includes Warren Jones and Bill Bishop. Webb said the three will start seeking potential savings to help the next finance committee in its budget deliberations as 14 of 19 council seats are up for election next week, including those held by Webb and Bishop. The committee report is due June 1. Webb anticipates the group will meet every other week.
