“For the first time in two administrations there was money in the bank. Drake and his people were concentrating on cutting fat and streamlining services to turn the ship around, and slowly but surely the city was moving away from the abyss.
Picking up his cup of still hot coffee, he took a sip and scanned a few of the requests. There was one from Parks and Rec to reinstate the SwimMobile. Drake had nothing but good memories of the mobile swimming pool rolling up to his neighborhood, and the fun ...he and his friends had made him smile. The SwimMobile had been out of commission for a good six or seven years and he’d love to bring it back. He set the proposal off to the side.
