One thing Council has made very clear is that this money is not to be used for operating. The point of taking this tax room would be to apply it to reduce the massive capital deficit we have or to reduce debt. Police and Fire's biggest issues are operating, and neither requires anywhere close to $50m annually to address capital needs.
