From the transcript
You have reached the City Council meeting. Please state your name and go ahead. Good evening, my name is John Wooden, and I just wanted to say a few words about the outgoing council members, particularly Councilman Stanford. As you mentioned, I think I encouraged him to run, but really the results that he produced in his two terms— it wasn't mentioned tonight— but he alone saved the city millions, actually made the city millions through his work on the Investment Committee. And it's through those investments that's allowed us— the city manager mentioned— it's allowed the city to manage funds a little bit differently.
