Why spend 25k on a mural? I know this is a federal art grant but Can't these funds be allocated better? Like say property tax relief? I feel like we're in for a rude awakening once the new mill rates are decided with the recent property re-evaluations...

That's not how grants work. The grants are for a specific purpose. If you're not using it for the purpose then you don't get the money.

Federal government decided to invest in arts. If you disagree with that call Jim Himes or Murphy/Blumenthal.
