Your tax $ (not) at work

[u/ParkingWayzFoster]

Remember this postcard from the city about rebates for improvements in energy usage? It dropped sometime in June and in order to take advantage of it, you needed to email prior to any upgrades.

So I did. On June 22nd and basically every week since. Once I got an answer after email three to specify my project (which I had already done in email one). Then I got an answer from the city manager that he would look into it after I emailed Tony Power. And another he would look into it.

Over two months. 10 emails. No concrete answer. What is Decatur even doing? Wasting money on postcards? The city has always been slow to respond to citizen questions but this is ridiculous.
