The U.S. Conference of Mayors had their annual convention in Providence this past weekend.  There must have been several opportunities for David Cicilline to learn things he can use to help Providence.  Well, I found two more articles he should read.  He might not enjoy them, but he certainly could learn something by reading them.


*Private colleges do their fair share for city by Daniel Egan
This article details the contributions made by colleges and universities, including the PILOT program David Cicilline agreed to a few years ago..

*Avenues to better local government by Steve Hamill
This article points out the priorities cities should focus on, and those they should avoid.  Maybe he should read this one twice.
