For city maintenance, Streets, Buildings, Police pay, Electric, water, gas, city parks and misc. properties, Lets Audit them and see how much of the funds get wasted, I bet if you wasted as much as any Government (I.E. City, County, State, Federal) Your competition would put you out of buiseness in A hot minute.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, In other words your service costs would be so freegin high that your competition would get ALL the customers.
