They can say that because it is true.

The Motorcycle Week account is funded by revenue generated by Bike Week from things such as vendor fees. It is not taxpayer money, it is specifically segregated and used only for that purpose. People who would post otherwise are misinformed or pushing their own agenda.

The Laconia Daily Sun reports that the city plans to tap into its Motorcycle Week account that has about $117,822. Mayor Ed Engler says using the account means taxpayers won't be on the hook.
