    Back from the long weekend to talk about... the budget!

    Aren't three-day weekends great? If only the whole world would take off on those long weekends, then I wouldn't have to worry about the three days of news that I have catch up on.

    More about that a little later.

    For now, it appears that, as one commenter wondered a while back, the mayor will in fact be a little delayed in his delivery of the budget address to City Council.

    However, the administration has set a target of February 14th for the address. Apparently, they want the extra two weeks to incorporate budgeting for Commissioner Ramsey's crime plan, which is due on January 30th.

    The Inquirer's Patrick Kerkstra has more on this and put the question to Nutter about his Streets Commissioner choice. You can review the background of that little controversy on this blog or over at YPP.

    (Edited to add) The Streets Commissioner appointment is a headlining story on KYW 1060.com.
