[evince]

for 50,000 you can build a new office that would meet the needs of a town of 8,000 people

"I braced her about it," he said. "I told her it was against the law to make such a large expenditure without the council taking a vote. She said, 'I'm the mayor, I can do whatever I want until the courts tell me I can't.'"

Carpet and wallpaper cost the same amount per square foot no matter how many people you have in your town

That is pure nonsense. you are clueless. You couldn't even hire an architect for that

If it was illegal, why didn't she get in trouble?

I'm not saying that I'm an expert on home design but that's some fucking expensive wallpaper if it costs 50k to put it on one room.

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

I guess no expense is unjustified if it's for your on personal tastes and you're not paying for it.

I was making general examples of the costs involved and that the size of the town has nothing to do with it. Can you provide an itemized list of the work done?

You can add a room to a house with 50 gs dude and you know it.

I don't know how big the office is. Say its 5,000 square feet you are looking at $35,000 - $45,000 just to repaint and carpet. If you do anything structural like move walls etc. you are looking at a lot more. So $50k is essentially nothing.

I have no idea what it costs to add a room to a house. I do know what it costs to build out office space.
