"This has got to stop. It' really
going to affect a whole lot of things
that's going on in the city," he said.
"If we don't get any job, what are
we going to do?"
Murphy said the same thing that
was happening when Wolf was in
office is happening again. "I know
we are not going to have that many
opportunities in the next four years
to get this work." .

mended Mwphy for tanding up for
the clnzera. He said he agree with
Murphy that orne of the jobs should
go to city resident.
"I don't see why we can't sit
down with contractors that do busi­
ness wi.th the city, and where there's
jobs that require minimum skills,
could go to city residents," Cren­
shaw said.
HE SAID, out of courtesy the
contractors could give some jobs to
city residents, because it's a good
business gesture and indication that
they are concerned about continuing
to do business with the city.
"Ifthcycontinue to disregard this,

trying to get jobs for city residents.
