LACONIA (AP)
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.
SOOOO, next year bike week will be underfunded.
I'm not pushing any agenda at all.
Just looks like at some point SOMEONE, usually tax payers, has to make it up.

BTW, I don't care, don't pay taxes in Laconia, and usually stay away from it all.
